  • Alaska Daylight Time: 2 pm - 7 pm
  • Pacific Daylight Time: 3 pm - 8 pm
  • Mountain Daylight Time: 4 pm - 9 pm
  • Central Daylight Time: 5 pm - 10 pm

When the maintenance begins, all servers will be offline for five hours, and you will be unable to access your account during this time. Hence, it is recommended that you complete any unfinished business in the game before the servers shut down.

Fortunately, Genshin Impact developers hand out Primogems as compensation for the inconvenience. You can expect to collect around 300-600 Primogems depending on the downtime and bug fixes. Keeping all this in mind, you can expect the new 4.2 update to roll out at 11:00 (UTC+8) on November 08, 2023.

You can refer to the above countdown to track the release of the new 4.2 update. The patch release will also drop all Phase I content recently revealed by Genshin Impact officials, allowing you numerous opportunities to obtain Primogems.
