Destiny 2 servers were experiencing drastic connection issues due to bug

The Destiny 2 servers have been down for over half a day as Bungie tries to fix a major issue with progress tracking.

The studio took the servers down at 11am PT / 2pm ET / 7pm. Bungie previously estimated that a fix will be rolled out around 3-4am PT / 6-7am ET / 11am GMT, but notes that this is subject to change.

“We are testing a solution,” the studio tweeted Tuesday night. “Once testing is complete, we will implement and verify the fix before Destiny 2 comes back online.

“We will also revert all player accounts to their status as of 8:20am PST, before Hotfix 6.3.0.5 goes live.”

Additionally, some enemies may continue to drop Rare (blue) engrams when players reach the soft cap. This will be resolved in a future update.

Bungie then provided three additional Twitter updates stating that “research and testing” to resolve the issue was still ongoing.

In his latest tweet, at 7:30 pm PT / 10:30 pm ET / 3:30 am GMT, he wrote: “Our investigation and testing continues. To set expectations, this issue will not be resolved tonight.

“We are estimating a schedule of 3-4 AM PST tomorrow, January 25, to implement our solution. Timeline subject to change. More information will be provided once it is available.”
