Genshin Impact will launch its upcoming version 3.7 update based on a current banner schedule. Although HoYoverse officials have yet to release any announcements, the new patch is expected to launch on May 23, 2023. Before releasing any new version, developers always run server maintenance updates.

From previous updates, players can anticipate that 3.7 server maintenance will start at 6 am (UTC-4) on May 23, 2023. During this time, all the servers will shut down, and players cannot access their accounts in Genshin Impact. The downtime can last approximately five hours, if not more. This situation can inconvenience some who will likely miss out on their daily commissions or some opportunity and lose precious Primogems.

To compensate players for the inconvenience, HoYoverse officials usually hand out a minimum of 300 Primogems for free. These free Primogems are sent directly to players' in-game mailbox and must be claimed within 30 days, or they will expire.

Here is a global countdown players can follow to track the beginning of server maintenance in Genshin Impact. Remember that this countdown is based on previous records and can be considered accurate unless officials change their usual release time.

Therefore, the patch 3.7 update can be expected to launch at 11 am (UTC-4) on May 24, 2023.
