AION 2 Schedules Oct. 6 Server Maintenance, Temporarily Disabling Login

AION 2 will take its game servers offline for scheduled maintenance beginning at 23:30 PDT on October 6, 2026. That corresponds to 08:30 CEST on October 7 for European players.

Game login will be temporarily unavailable throughout the work, so players will not be able to enter AION 2 once maintenance begins. The scheduled downtime is expected to last three hours and 30 minutes.

Asia servers have a longer maintenance window. Work on those servers is expected to run for five hours and 30 minutes, making the regional difference the key scheduling detail for anyone planning to play around the outage.

The maintenance will also deploy an update, although its specific changes have not yet been shared. Those details will be announced later; for now, the confirmed impact is a temporary login shutdown beginning late Tuesday in PDT and Wednesday morning in CEST, with Asia servers remaining under maintenance for an additional two hours.
