Maintenance has concluded as of 11:00 AM PST and the servers are available once more. We thank you for your patience.

The maintenance will now last for 6 hours and conclude at 12:00. We will notify you again if there is any further change in the maintenance schedule.

Mabinogi will have a scheduled maintenance on February 12th. During this time, the game will be unavailable. Maintenance is expected to begin at 6:00 AM PST and last approximately 6 hours.
