Genshin Impact 2.1 maintenance will end simultaneously for all players; the essential thing to consider is the difference in timezones.
A new character banner featuring the Raiden Shogun and Kujou Sara will go live at this time. Not only that, but there will also be a weapon banner featuring the Raiden Shogun's signature weapon (Engulfing Lightning). Best of all, the 2.1 update will finally release Watatsumi and Seirai Island.
It's a big update that many Genshin Impact fans are excited about. Unsurprisingly, this means that players are wondering when maintenance will end. Fortunately, Genshin Impact 2.1 maintenance is expected to last roughly five hours.
When does Genshin Impact 2.1 maintenance end?
Genshin Impact 2.1 will begin its maintenance at the same time across several regions. It's vital to note that it will end simultaneously for all of these areas, as the process is expected to last just five hours.
However, maintenance can last longer if technical difficulties arise. In that scenario, Genshin Impact fans will get an extra 60 Primogems every additional hour. Players will receive 300 Primogems at the bare minimum, regardless of whether maintenance finishes early or not.
