The Genshin Impact 4.5 update is about to be released soon, with only a few hours left. Before the new version goes live, the developers will perform periodical maintenance to apply all the new changes and features. The maintenance is estimated to last for five hours. Since all the servers will be down during this time, no one can log into the game.

Genshin Impact 4.5 is officially titled 'Blades Weaving Betwixt Brocade' and will be released simultaneously across all servers on March 13 at 11 am (UTC+8). This article will provide a full maintenance schedule for all regions and other relevant information.

HoYoverse has announced the new Genshin Impact 4.5 update's maintenance schedule. Assuming everything goes according to plan, the new patch will be out on March 13 at 11 am (UTC+8). Having said that, before the update goes live, the developers will conduct a new update maintenance, which will begin on March 13 at 6 am (UTC+8) and is expected to last five hours.

Although maintenance and new update releases will occur concurrently across all servers, the exact timing will differ for each player depending on the region.

Once the maintenance is complete and the update is released, all Genshin Impact players will receive 600 Primogems via the in-game mail feature as compensation. Additionally, if the update maintenance exceeds the scheduled time of five hours, players will be rewarded 100 more Primogems for every extra hour taken.

Players should also note that the first half banners of Chiori and Itto will be available as soon as the update is released. This also means that the countdown indicates the remaining time until their banners appear.
