Blizzard fam, listen up! There’s a heads-up from Blizzard about some upcoming maintenance planned for their data centers on June 24th. This means you might experience a few hours of downtime with your favorite Blizzard games (think Diablo 4, WoW, Overwatch 2, etc.).
The good news? This is just routine maintenance to keep things running smoothly. The bad news? You might have trouble logging in, managing your account, or grabbing those sweet in-game goodies during this time. While the focus is on the Americas region, Blizzard says there could be some bumps globally.
Here’s the breakdown:
Blizzard Games
- Downtime: June 24th, 6:30 AM PDT to 10:00 AM PDT (3.5 hours)
- Affected Services:
- Battle.net (logins might be unavailable)
- Battle.net Shop (services unavailable)
- Games (some entirely offline, others with limited features)
- Games Most Affected: Diablo (all versions), World of Warcraft (all versions), Hearthstone, Overwatch 2, Call of Duty, and more (see the full list below for details)
Some games might still be playable with limitations, like not being able to find new matches or make in-game purchases. So, if you were planning an epic online raid or brawl with your crew, you might want to pick another day.
Overall, this is a minor inconvenience, but hey, better maintenance now than a meltdown later, right? In the meantime, why not dust off some of those single-player quests you’ve been neglecting?
