Genshin Impact 2.6 server status and maintenance duration

The worst part about an upcoming update is the five-hour-long maintenance, and Travelers are eagerly looking forward to Genshin Impact 2.6. Any players excited about this update might be disappointed that they cannot play the game at the moment, especially if they don't know when the game is supposed to be playable again.

Basic things to note:

• Maintenance begins at 6.00 AM (UTC+8)
• Maintenance should end at 11.00 AM (UTC+8)
• Compensation includes 300 Primogems (plus 60 per additional hour if it goes overtime)
• Travelers must be Adventure Rank 5 or higher to get the Primogems
• The mail containing the Primogems will expire in 30 days

All of this information is based on miHoYo's recent patch notes for the game.

Genshin Impact 2.6 maintenance details (When will the game be playable again?)

A simple countdown should suffice in letting players know when the game is expected to become playable again. It's based on the patch notes stating:

"Update maintenance begins 2022/03/30 06.00 (UTC+8) and is estimated to take 5 hours."

Recent Version Updates have always started around 11.00 AM (UTC+8), so the time shouldn't be too surprising for players. What might throw some gamers off is Daylight Savings, which is currently active in the United States and Europe. Hence, it might seem like everything is happening an hour later in regions that practice Daylight Savings.

Do note that maintenance should begin five hours earlier than what's shown in the above countdown. That means Travelers will be unable to play the game until maintenance finishes.

The above countdown also applies to when Kamisato Ayato's debut banner and Venti's rerun will be available. Both characters are immensely popular at the moment, so the start of Genshin Impact 2.6 is something for many Travelers to enjoy. On a more minor note, Sucrose, Xiangling, and Yun Jin are the 4-star characters for both character banners.

This banner's duration is 11.00 AM (UTC+8) on March 30, 2022, to 5.59 PM on April 19, 2022. Of course, there will also be a weapon banner airing simultaneously for players to spend their Primogems on in Genshin Impact 2.6.

Haran Geppaku Futsu is a brand new 5-star Sword intended to synergize excellently with Kamisato Ayato in Genshin Impact 2.6. Similarly, Elegy for the End is a 5-star Bow that many Venti mains might want. The featured 4-star weapons are:

• Rust
• The Flute
• The Widsith
• Dragon's Bane
• Sacrificial Greatsword

This Epitome Invocation has the same duration as the two character banners previously mentioned. That duration is from 11.00 AM (UTC+8) on March 30, 2022, to 5.59 PM on April 19, 2022.
