Release date and time for Valorant's Waylay in Mumbai (India) server

With Season 25 Act 1 nearing its conclusion, players should be aware of the transition process leading up to the release of Waylay. At the end of Act 1, the competitive queue will be temporarily disabled, preventing players from entering ranked matches. However, during the final hours of Act 1, other game modes, like Swiftplay and Spike, will remain accessible, allowing players to continue enjoying the game.

After that, it can be assumed that the servers will go into maintenance mode. This will last for a few hours (approximately two to four), after which the update should be available for download.

For Mumbai (India) servers, the maintenance downtime is supposed to begin at 2:30 am (IST) on March 6, 2025. As such, it's expected to be over by around 4:30 am - 6:30 am on the same day, after which the update containing Waylay and other content (like the Season 25 Act 2 Battlepass) should become accessible.
