When will Honkai Star Rail servers come online? Maintenance and downtime hours
The Honkai Star Rail community is preparing itself for a massive update scheduled in a few hours. After the successful launch of HoYoverse's new gacha title, players have been waiting for almost a month to see what the company has in store. Throughout multiple trailers and special programs, everyone has a fair idea of what to expect for the next 40 days.
However, before everything falls into place, it is important to know the details about HoYoverse's schedule for maintenance.
Based on multiple announcements, everyone has been scheduled to be kicked out from Honkai Star Rail's official servers starting at 6 am UTC +8 server time, until 11 am UTC +8. This means players are looking at a five-hour-long downtime maintenance period before v1.1 goes live in all major regions.
This article lists the downtime period across every region and time zone.

Players are recommended to keep an eye out for Honkai Star Rail's official social media accounts for any announcements.
