Downtime begins February 1 at 1 a.m. PST / 4 a.m. EST / 9 a.m. GMT. Matchmaking stops 30 minutes prior, with servers offline for an indefinite period—typically under four hours based on Epic's track record.
“V19.20 is coming secretly (until we just announced it),” Epic tweeted, nodding to Covert Canyon. Leaked map images show it spawning within Pinnacle Peak.
