Genshin Impact 3.0 Maintenance - Start, End Time, Free Primogems

HoYoverse is all set to release the next big update, Genshin Impact version 3.0, on 24th August, and players are eagerly waiting for the patch to arrive. One of the major reasons for all the hype and excitement is the new Sumeru region which is based on the long-awaited Dendro element.

Genshin Impact 3.0 update will also bring two new Dendro characters, including Tighnari and Collei, along with an Electro character Dori. However, before the content gets available to explore and play, the in-game servers will be taken down for maintenance, and you can find the complete schedule below.

Genshin Impact 3.0 update maintenance is expected to begin on 24th August at 06:00 (UTC+8) and will run for five hours as per the official announcement made by HoYoverse.

 

During this period, no one will be able to play the game, so make sure to complete your quests in progress before the maintenance begins to get your rewards. 

In order to compensate for the downtime, HoYoverse will be rewarding players with a total of 300 Primogems for free. Players having Adventure Rank 5 or above before the release of the 3.0 update will be able to claim these free Primogems from the in-game mail sent by HoYoverse.

However, make sure to claim them within 30 days after the release of the Genshin Impact 3.0 update, as the mail will expire after that.

Travelers can use these Primogems to wish for various characters and weapons in the game by purchasing Intertwined Fates. In addition to this, you can also use them to buy Hero's Wit, Mora, character outfits, and more in the game. 

You can have a look at the official trailer of the Genshin Impact 3.0 update called The Morn a Thousand Roses Brings below.
