Destiny 2 servers will be back up at 8 AM PST on January 4, 2022

On January 3, 2022 Bungie announced that Destiny 2 will be undergoing emergency server maintenance on January 4. They also announced that at 5:45 AM PST, all players will be disconnected from the game.

However, they did not provide any specifics on the exact reason for the update. As expected, on January 4, 2022, all players were disconnected from the game in order to conduct the maintenance.

It is still unclear on whether this is regular maintenance or whether there are going to be any fixes. The website of Destiny 2 has also not provided any clarification apart from mentioning that it is routine server maintenance.

Usually, Destiny 2 conducts server maintenance in order to ensure that the game does not suffer any hiccups. This happens quite regularly, but, it was stopped on account of the Christmas holidays at Bungie.

This explains why the developers decided to conduct an unusually long server maintenance on the first weekly reset within Destiny 2 on January 4. Apart from that, as mentioned on the website, players will be able to start logging in to the game at 8:30 AM PST.

Log-in time for major regions:

• China: 12:00 AM (January 5)
• India: 9:30 PM (January 4)
• United Kingdom: 4 PM (January 4)

While players will be able to log-in to the game, the server maintenance is set to continue for another hour beyond the above mentioned time. Therefore, within this hour, players can expect connectivity issues.
