More often than not, Destiny 2 servers go down for maintenance for various reasons. It could be from a glitch that’s causing some server issues, for a big update, or even just a small patch. Either way, as part of the Bungie community, it’s something we’ve learned to live with, even if we don’t enjoy it. Though, knowing when the servers are down is a great thing. Sometimes there are just too many players trying to log in at once and you should keep trying, and other times, you just have to wait it out for the maintenance to be complete.
What Are Destiny 2 Servers Doing? Are They Down?
On June 3rd, 2024, Destiny 2 servers went down for an update to implement the pre-load update and more changes coming with The Final Shape. Though this server shutdown is for every platform, the maintenance should take a total of 25 hours. As of right now, the servers should be back up and running by 10 AM PDT on June 4th, with The Final Shape active. A great way to stay informed is to follow @BungieHelp on Twitter/X.
Bungie tweeted that they were bringing down the servers early to prepare for the big The Final Shape expansion release, which should go smoothly, but we all know Bungie and how they are about broken updates, so be sure to check back for more information if anything goes wrong. With the extended downtime, though, there’s a chance things will run much better when the servers finally come back up.
Hopefully, this downtime won’t last much longer than the scheduled period, but we all know Bungie likes to keep servers down for just a bit longer than we’re always hoping for. Once servers are back up, Destiny 2 will now have The Final Shape expansion available to play.

Destiny 2 is now available on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation consoles.
