Update: 6.2.0.7. will indeed remove players from all activities, contrary to yesterday’s statement. The deployment of hotfix 6.2.0.7 is expected to conclude at 10 AM PT, exactly when players will be able to log back in.

The developer Bungie has announced that Destiny 2 is due to get a new hotfix, with server maintenance starting today at 10 AM PDT. That is almost 3 hours from the time of this writing. Unlike the previous hotfixes, this time, the developer doesn’t plan to shut down the servers, with zero downtime for players.

The background maintenance will last 4 hours, with the roll of patch 6.2.0.7. The official announcement for the deployment of hotfix 6.2.0.7 comes from Bungie’s official help Twitter profile.
