Genshin Impact 3.1 maintenance downtime and timezone conversions

Genshin Impact 3.1's update maintenance will begin in just a few hours, locking players out of the game. Fans can utilize the countdown above to keep track of the process, as it counts down to 11 am (UTC+8).

This countdown applies throughout the world regardless of the timezones, but fans can still find conversions here.

One should note that during maintenance, they can't interact with the game at all. Therefore, they should keep track of their Resin to prevent overfill. As compensation, they will get a ton of extra Primogems for new characters like Cyno and Candace.

While the maintenance is live, players can begin preloading the update to quicken downloads. Preloading is easy, as all they need to do is open the game launcher and click on the cloud shaped icon near the play button.

This will save a lot of time once the maintenance is complete and will get players back into the game as soon as possible.
