How to read the source labels

Official: the time is written in an NC notice or patch note.
Part official: NC states the days and the hour. Which clock that hour uses comes from players.
Inferred: NC has not announced it. We worked the date out from other official dates.
Player-reported: no official timetable exists. The rule comes from player trackers.

Schedules change. NC cut the Artifact Siege from three days a week to two on November 4, 2026, five weeks after launch. We re-check the official notices and update the rules when they move.

FAQ

What time zone do the AION 2 timers use?

Each countdown runs in your own time zone, read from your browser. The tables also show UTC, Los Angeles, New York, Berlin, São Paulo and Seoul.

Are these timers for the global or the Korean servers?

Global only: NA East, NA West, Europe, South America and Asia. Korea and Taiwan run a separate service with a different timetable.

How often does the Spacetime Rift open in AION 2?

Players report it opens every 3 hours, starting at 00:00 UTC, for about 10 minutes. NC has not published a timetable.

When is AION 2 weekly maintenance?

Every Wednesday at 06:30 UTC. The five weekly windows since the October 2026 launch ran between 3 and 5.5 hours.

Do the timers need updating by hand?

No. Each timer is a rule, and your browser works out the next start from it. Only one-off dates such as the season end are typed in.
