Dead of Winter Patch Announcement

The servers will be coming offline today for maintenance and the installation of our major Dead of Winter update. This patch brings a number of fixes and improvements to our game, not to mention a set-load of new content!

Patch day starts on 11/16 at 11:00 PM PT (Worldclock), when we’ll close registrations for new tournaments. Then, on 11/17 at 12:00 AM PT (Worldclock), we’ll take the servers offline to give our databases a good scrubbing.

The servers and tournaments should come back online on 11/17 at around 12:00 PM PT (Worldclock) if everything goes according to plan. Occasionally, while giving our servers a once-over, a few stray Candlekin can make things a bit sticky. Maintenance might last a little longer as a result.

To help with the wait, we will have our release stream on Friday, 11/17 at 7am PT to showcase the new set! Join Crota for games, prizes, and to see Dead of Winter in action. Then, on Friday we will have our release celebration to kick off all the fun!

Here’s the schedule in short-form:

11/16 at 11:00 PM PT – Tournament registrations closed

11/17 at 12:00 AM PT – Servers offline

11/17 at 07:00 AM PT – Dead of Winter Release Stream
