Destiny 2 update time

The new Destiny 2 Season of the Chosen expansion is scheduled to go live on servers on February 9 at around 5 PM GMT. Bungie has confirmed that the game will be taken offline for maintenance for a brief period. 

The maintenance is set to begin at 8 AM PST (16:00 UTC). At around 8:45 AM PST (16:45 UTC), players will be taken off the game from all the activities as the game will be offline during this period. Players will only be able to log back into the game after 9 AM PST (17:00 UTC).

At this point, a new Destiny 2 update 3.1.0 will be rolled out on servers for all platforms and the new Destiny 2 patch notes will be available. Players can log back in once the new update is live, however, it is likely that the game places them into a queue. Bungie has explained that players may face issues while attempting to log into the game as maintenance will still be running in the background.

The maintenance period is expected to conclude at around 10:00 AM PST (18:00 UTC).
