PUBG Server Maintenance Schedule
For Console Update #39.1, the developers have announced a fixed maintenance window where all live servers are taken offline together. The console maintenance for this update starts on December 11 at 1:00 AM UTC, which corresponds to 10:00 AM KST, and is expected to run for approximately 8 hours. During this period, matchmaking and gameplay will be unavailable, and players will see maintenance or connection error messages when trying to log in.
This maintenance window is aligned with the broader 39.1 update rollout, which also includes separate PC maintenance earlier in the month. Major PUBG updates often use longer maintenance windows like this—typically 4–8 hours or more—to push new content, adjust balance, and apply backend changes needed for store and season updates.
Recent and typical maintenance patterns
- Major numbered updates (like 39.1) frequently come with multi‑hour downtime across regions, sometimes exceeding 7–8 hours depending on patch size.
- Console and PC windows are usually announced separately, with console maintenance tied to store and seasonal content cycles after the PC patch is stable.
When will PUBG Servers be Back Up?
For the current [Console] Update #39.1 maintenance, servers are expected to come back online roughly 8 hours after the start time. Since the live servers entered maintenance at 1:00 AM UTC (10:00 AM KST), the projected end of downtime is around 9:00 AM UTC / 6:00 PM KST, assuming no extensions are required. Once maintenance completes, all update 39.1 console content and changes will become available on the live servers.
Times for maintenance completion are always “approximate” and can shift if unexpected issues appear during deployment. If problems occur, the team may extend downtime beyond the initial 8‑hour estimate, so players should treat the target time as a guideline rather than a guarantee.
How to check if servers are back
- Official PUBG Support social channels (especially the support X/Twitter account) post both the initial maintenance notice and a follow‑up when work is completed or extended.
- The in‑game connection status and login screen will switch from a maintenance message back to normal matchmaking access once the servers are fully live again.
Disclaimer:
The PUBG server maintenance for Console Update #39.1 is expected to last around 8 hours, with completion times being approximate. If unforeseen issues arise, the downtime may extend beyond the estimated period. Please monitor official PUBG support channels for updates and status.
