These times are important today: Bungie is informing its players via x.com (formerly Twitter) about the exact downtime. The servers are planned to be unreachable for 3 hours and 15 minutes.

- The maintenance will continue in the background until 21:00.
Also, keep in mind that third-party applications as well as the official companion app may also be unavailable for a while, so you may not be able to use them.
