The Division 2 is offline on Thursday, October 1, 2026, for scheduled maintenance that targets two bugs introduced with the Y8S3.1 Red Horizon Title Update. The servers were taken down at 9:30 am CEST / 3:30 am EDT / 12:30 am PDT, and access is blocked on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation for the duration.
Quick answer: The Division 2 servers come back online at 2:30 pm CEST / 8:30 am EDT / 5:30 am PDT, following an estimated five-hour outage.
The Division 2 server downtime schedule (October 1, 2026)
The maintenance window runs for an estimated five hours. The times below cover the start of the outage and the point at which Agents can log back in.
| Timezone | Servers offline | Servers back online |
|---|---|---|
| CEST | 9:30 am | 2:30 pm |
| EDT | 3:30 am | 8:30 am |
| PDT | 12:30 am | 5:30 am |
If the work runs long, the return time shifts accordingly. Any extension to the window is posted on the game’s official channel on X, so that is the first place to check if the servers stay down past the listed time.
What the Y8S3.1 maintenance fixes
Two fixes are being applied during this downtime. Both address problems that surfaced after the Y8S3.1 patch went live.
- An issue with the One For All mutator in the Escalation game mode that could crash servers, which had disrupted players farming prototype gear.
- A recalibration problem affecting the Prima Donna and Steel & Sons exotic weapon reconfiguration blueprints, which caused the weapons to be crafted instead of recalibrated.
The Steel and Sons exotic rifle can drop from the Red Moon Rising event boss in the Toxic Dark Zone, so the recalibration fix matters for anyone chasing that weapon during the current season.
MIKE-01 error code during maintenance
While the servers are down, launching the game shows the MIKE-01 error code. This prompt confirms the servers are offline for maintenance and is expected behavior during the window, not a fault with your account or hardware.
You will know the maintenance is over when the MIKE-01 prompt no longer appears and the game connects normally past the start screen. If it persists after the listed return time, wait for an extension notice before troubleshooting your own setup.
To review ongoing problems and their priority, you can use the official Ubisoft Bug Report website, which tracks reported issues for the game.
