Today, on July 21, maintenance is taking place at Destiny. The servers are offline.
If you were planning to play some relaxed Iron Banner matches in the Crucible after work today, you’ll need to change your plans. Bungie is conducting several hours of maintenance.
Starting at 5 PM our time, preparations will begin. Players will not be able to log into Destiny anymore.
At 6 PM, the servers will be taken offline. All Guardians still in the game will be kicked from their activities.
The work is expected to be completed before 9 PM. By then, you should be able to fight the darkness again or smash other Guardians in the Crucible. Experience shows that Bungie tends to be generous with these timing estimates. Usually, the servers come back online significantly earlier. So, not too much time should be lost in order to play the July Iron Banner, which is active this week.
What changes Bungie is making today has not been specified. They might just be tinkering with the servers or preparing for “Rise of Iron”.
Yesterday in the livestream, some info about “The Dawning of the Iron Lords” was presented – including a Gjallarwing Sparrow!
In the meantime, the PlayStation exclusive content has been confirmed with “Rise of Iron”.
