It&#8217;s difficult to tell if that&#8217;s due to planned server maintenance by the Battlestate Games&#8217; dev team or unplanned downtime, but considering the game&#8217;s generally strong track record of remaining online, chances are it&#8217;s the former.<\/p>\n<p>Scheduled maintenance occurs every now and then with Tarkov, and given it&#8217;s an online-only game, of the servers do go offline for maintenance, the game is unplayable for the entire fanbase.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing you want to get back into Tarkov, you probably want to know &#8220;<strong>how long will servers be down<\/strong>&#8221; or &#8220;when the game will be back&#8221; if the developers are implementing a sizable new update or patch for the game. After all, that&#8217;s probably the reason you&#8217;re reading this website.

Of course, there are occasional glitches, and there are various protocols for various systems.<\/p>\n<p>Although this isn&#8217;t set in stone, we&#8217;ve learned to anticipate that any maintenance for the game will typically last around 4 hours. Sometimes this may be extended, but the BSG team normally makes sure to let fans know when this happens.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Tomorrow, October 10, at 8AM BST \/ 3AM EDT, we are planning to install a technical update. The installation will take approximately 4 hours, but may be extended if necessary.

So, be prepared to wait longer than the stated time should things go wrong.<\/p>\n<p data-v-7f809bc8=\"\">It&#8217;s also worth noting that when servers come back online, it&#8217;s likely that you will be placed in a queue to get back into the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re prepared to guess that Tarkov servers aren&#8217;t up and running right now if you&#8217;re reading this.
