Maintenance on October 25th – All times and server downtime
With every update, Bungie announces precise downtime periods when players cannot play. We provide you with this information in our article with the German times, so you can better plan your gaming evening.
These times are important today:
- At 6:00 PM German time, maintenance work will start in the background on all platforms.
- From 6:45 PM, the servers will go offline, and you will be automatically kicked from all activities.
- Around 7:00 PM, the servers are expected to come back online, and update 6.2.5.1 will be rolled out for all platforms. You can log back into the game then.
- Even if the servers are online, maintenance will officially continue until 8:00 PM.
Also, keep in mind that third-party applications as well as the official companion app might not be accessible correctly for a while after the update.
Changes with Update 6.2.5.1 in Season 18
Current list of known issues:
- Lord of Wolves has been disabled due to a bug. Bungie announced that it will restore the weapon back into the game with update 6.2.5.1
- The season intro cutscene may have extremely low frame rates when viewed on the Epic Games Store. This issue can be resolved by updating the Epic Games Store to the latest version.
