Genshin Impact maintenance schedule and 3.4 update countdown for all servers

Genshin Impact 3.4 is slated to have maintenance at 6:00 am (UTC+8) on January 18, 2023. The actual update will go live at around 11:00 am (UTC+8) on the same day.

All servers will undergo maintenance simultaneously. They will also launch the new version update at the same time. The main thing to note is that not every player knows what UTC+8 translates to in their respective time zones. Let's start with the countdowns since they're the easiest to visualize.

Genshin Impact 3.4 countdown

The above countdown is for 6:00 am (UTC+8) on January 18, 2023. Travelers living anywhere in the world should be able to get a clear idea of when maintenance will begin as this embed counts down to its start time.

It's pretty self-explanatory. However, some players might prefer an embed that counts down to the actual launch of Genshin Impact 3.4. In that case, the following embed should suffice.

This countdown is for 11:00 am (UTC+8) on January 18, 2023. It is worth noting that there is no guarantee that the new version update will begin by then since there could always be technical issues.

Even so, most past version updates tend to begin around 11:00 am (UTC+8).
