The Division 2 is taking its servers down on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, for a planned maintenance that clears the way for the Dead by Daylight collaboration event. The game stays unplayable across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox while the work happens, and you will need to download an update once everything is back.
Quick answer: The servers go offline at 9:30 AM CEST / 3:30 AM EDT / 12:30 AM PDT and are expected back roughly five hours later, at 2:30 PM CEST / 8:30 AM EDT / 5:30 AM PDT (12:30 PM UTC).
Servers expected back: June 30, 2026 at 12:30 PM UTC (5:30 AM PDT / 8:30 AM EDT)
The Division 2 June 30 downtime times by region
The maintenance follows the usual schedule. Stop your session a few minutes before the offline time in your zone so you do not lose mission progress or recent loot. The window is estimated at five hours, and the return time below assumes no delays.
| Time zone | Servers offline | Servers back (est.) |
|---|---|---|
| PDT | 12:30 AM | 5:30 AM |
| CDT | 2:30 AM | 7:30 AM |
| EDT | 3:30 AM | 8:30 AM |
| UTC | 7:30 AM | 12:30 PM |
| BST | 8:30 AM | 1:30 PM |
| CEST | 9:30 AM | 2:30 PM |
Delays have happened with recent maintenance windows, so treat the return time as the earliest the game could come back rather than a guarantee. The official Division account posts the schedule and any extensions.

This downtime is tied to the Dead by Daylight collaboration. Once the update is live, a new event runs for two weeks and hands out unique rewards. A premium pass is also available with its own exclusive items and two exotic caches.
The same patch starts a new scout challenge, which moves the season closer to the Into the Dark climax mission. You will only see this content after you finish downloading the update on your platform.
MIKE-01 error during the maintenance window
If you try to log in while the servers are down, you will hit the MIKE-01 error code. It reads as “The Division 2 services are unavailable now. Please try again later,” and it points to the servers being offline rather than a problem on your end. During a scheduled window, MIKE-01 is expected and clears on its own once the servers return.
If MIKE-01 keeps showing after the maintenance has ended, a full restart of the game and your platform app usually fixes it. When that does not help, check whether a separate internet issue is affecting your connection.
How to confirm the servers are back online
Note: Even after servers show as live, the first 30 to 60 minutes can include login queues and slow menus as players reconnect. If your first attempt fails right at the return time, wait a short while and try again instead of repeatedly forcing a login.
Protect your progress before the servers shut down
A hard shutdown does not save checkpoint progress inside active missions, so anything mid-run can be lost. General data such as XP, loot, and currency updates in real time, but unfinished mission or raid progress is the part at risk.
- Wrap up your current mission or activity before the offline time; do not start a long run close to it.
- Return to a safe area like a settlement or social hub rather than sitting inside an instance.
- Turn in any ready projects or objectives so a sudden cutover does not cost you the reward.
Once the update is installed and you are back in Washington, the Dead by Daylight event reward track runs for the next two weeks, giving you plenty of time to work through it after the servers stabilize.
