Maintenance Summary for Genshin Impact 3.1

Fans can keep checking out this countdown if they want to keep a visual track of when the maintenance will end, and the new version update will roll out. Keep in mind that this countdown is based on HoYoverse's official notice. Therefore, it will not account for anything if the official makes any last-minute delay.

Genshin Impact developers perform update maintenance to ensure a smooth gameplay experience when the new patch rolls out. When the maintenance starts, all the servers in the game go down. While the servers are down, all players have restricted access to their accounts. Those logged in when the maintenance started are also automatically logged out.

Due to this inconvenience, the developers decided to compensate players with free Primogems. 60 Primogems are handed out for every hour the servers are down. Since servers are usually down for players, they always get a minimum of 300 Primogems as compensation is sent directly to the in-game mailbox.
