Don't panic if all those bloodstains and messages fade away like fog in sunlight: Bandai Namco will take Dark Souls 3's servers down later tonight to deploy patch 1.04.

Rather than disable all servers in one fell swoop, Bandai will be staggering downtime across each of Dark Souls 3's platforms:

• PS4: 4pm to 6pm Pacific
• Xbox One: 4pm to 10pm Pacific
• PC: 11pm to 1am Pacific

Per the official Dark Souls Tumblr, players have a lot to look forward to in version 1.04, including fixes for item collection while playing multiplayer, relaxed conditions for certain optional events, and various fixes for issues that have caused crashes.
