Release Time
This update begins at Midnight PT / 3am ET / 8am BST / 9am CEST on May 19, when all Elite Dangerous servers will be taken offline across every platform.
Maintenance will last for approximately 11 hours, so if all goes to plan, it’ll return at 11am PT / 2pm ET / 7pm BST / 8pm CEST. As such, we’d expect it to go live on PC around that same time.
