Bluepoch is putting Reverse: 1999 into a global downtime window on July 23, 2026 to install the Atomic Heart crossover, officially titled Polymerized Dreams. The servers close for about five hours, which locks everyone out until the new version is ready. The launch is globally synced, so every region receives the update at the same real-world moment rather than on a staggered rollout.
Quick answer: Maintenance runs on July 23, 2026 from 5 am to 10 am (UTC-5). Bluepoch takes all servers offline for roughly five hours, and the Atomic Heart update goes live once that window closes.
Update goes live: July 23, 2026, 10 am (UTC-5)
Maintenance window in your region
The downtime is anchored to 5 am to 10 am (UTC-5). Because the update is synchronized across the globe, the local clock times shift by region but the actual offline period is the same for everyone. Use the table below to check when your servers close and reopen.
| Region / timezone | Downtime (local) |
|---|---|
| Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) | 3 am – 8 am, July 23 |
| Mountain Daylight Time (MDT) | 4 am – 9 am, July 23 |
| Central Daylight Time (CDT) | 5 am – 10 am, July 23 |
| Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) | 6 am – 11 am, July 23 |
| Western European Summer Time (WEST) | 11 am – 4 pm, July 23 |
| Central European Summer Time (CEST) | 12 pm – 5 pm, July 23 |
| Eastern European Summer Time (EEST) | 1 pm – 6 pm, July 23 |
| India Standard Time (IST) | 3:30 pm – 8:30 pm, July 23 |
| Philippine Time (PHT) | 6 pm – 11 pm, July 23 |
| Japan Standard Time (JST) | 7 pm – 12 am, July 23–24 |
| Korea Standard Time (KST) | 7 pm – 12 am, July 23–24 |
You will know the update is ready when the client prompts a download and lets you log back in past the maintenance screen. If the timeline holds, that happens at 10 am (UTC-5). Heavier-than-expected patching can push the reopening slightly, so keep the client updated and restart it if the login screen still shows the maintenance notice after the window ends.
Maintenance compensation
For the downtime, Bluepoch sends out Clear Drop and Jar of Picrasma Candy as compensation. These land in your in-game mailbox, so log in after servers reopen and claim them before the mail expires. If you play across PC and mobile, the reward only needs to be claimed once per account.
What goes live after the update
Once the servers are back, the Polymerized Dreams version opens with new banners, an original crossover story, and a large batch of free rewards. The headline addition is The Twins, the first dual-Afflatus character in the game, who can deal damage across two Afflatus types and equip two exclusive Psychubes at once for two full sets of base stats and effects.
- The Twins arrive on the Analysis of Metallic Dramaturgy banner. At 100 pulls, you choose between one copy of The Twins or one Suitcase Impression, a 6-star selector covering Standard Pool 6-stars available as of this version. Further picks are offered at 160, 220, and 280 pulls.
- Nora can be recruited for free by finishing the Atomic Heart collaboration activities.
- A special exchange shop stocks collaboration currencies and rewards you earn by spending stamina on the main event.
- The run bundles roughly 110 free pulls, a free monthly pass, and a free Brimley garment alongside other anniversary-style rewards.
- Windsong and Lopera receive Euphoria buffs, and several Atomic Heart-inspired garments enter the game.
The crossover version lasts 21 days. If you want the collab bonuses, you can also redeem the code AtomicHeartCollab0723 in-game for extra freebies. Everything unlocks the moment the maintenance ends, so there is no separate wait once you are back past the login screen.
