Destiny 2 is going offline for server maintenance ahead of update 1.1.2.
Players won’t be able to login from 4pm UK time, as Destiny 2 server maintenance begins.
Anybody already logged in will be returned to the title screen at 5pm UK time, as online multiplayer is suspended.
Destiny 2 server maintenance will finish at 8pm GMT, at which point players will be able to download and install update 1.1.2.
“Occasionally, Destiny services may be brought offline to undergo scheduled or emergency maintenance, or to update the game to address gameplay issues or add in-game features,” reads a Bungie blog post.
