Genshin Impact server status for version 2.2 maintenance: Downtime and uptime revealed

miHoYo has recently revealed a valuable server status update for Genshin Impact 2.2.

It's almost time for a brand new update. Genshin Impact 2.2 will include new content, some of which range from new weapons to recent locations. One of the featured areas is Tsurumi Island, which players can access after completing "Seirai Stormchasers."

Maintenance is expected to begin on October 13, 2021, at 6.00 (UTC+8). miHoYo estimates that it will take roughly five hours for maintenance to end. Gamers can pre-install the content on PC to save time for later.

As usual, Genshin Impact players will receive Primogem compensation; here, they will receive 300 Primogems at minimum. One cannot log into Genshin Impact during the game's maintenance, so players should be aware of that before attempting to do so.

Genshin Impact players will receive 300 Primogems as compensation. It's essentially 60 Primogems an hour, but there is no change if the maintenance is finished early. However, players could earn an extra 60 Primogems every additional hour.

Gamers must reach Adventure Rank 5 to receive the compensation Primogems via in-game mail. This requirement must occur before Genshin Impact 2.2 maintenance begins.

Note: The mail expires in 30 days.
