Scheduled network maintenance (Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch)
20 October 2026, 03:45 UTC4.2 h
During the maintenance window, network services may be unavailable.

Times are UTC, taken from each operator’s own published schedule and not adjusted or interpreted. Operators move and cancel these; we re-read every five minutes, and the check time is at the top of the page. Only some publish ahead at all, so an empty row here is not a promise that a service will stay up.
