Sources & verification

Evidence, with dates

Where the schedule comes from

Official NC sources support the Taiwan and Korea configurations below. Reviewed on 5 October 2026. Community Global sources were checked on 6 October 2026. Reviewing an announcement confirms what it documents; it does not verify today's live server or portal status.

Global regions

NC has not published Global rift hours. NA East, NA West and Europe are shown as Community observed from the sources above. Latin America and Asia are TBD because AION2 Hub and Shugo.GG disagree. No Taiwan or Korea configuration is automatically applied to a pending region.

Daylight saving: Europe's clocks go back on 25 Oct 2026 and the US clocks on 1 Nov 2026. Trackers disagree on whether Global rifts keep the same UTC moments (so your local time shifts by an hour) or keep the same server-clock hour. That is not confirmed, so we show NA and Europe times only up to each clock change and will re-check afterwards. Taiwan and Korea do not use daylight saving.

What differs, and what is unknown

The Taiwan guide's 15 minutes and the older Korea patch's 10 minutes concern different services and dates. We preserve that distinction instead of choosing one duration for everyone. Neither duration controls this site's countdown.

Live portal availability, capacity, maintenance and later in-game changes are unknown to this site. Your device clock also affects the displayed countdown.

Preferences and privacy

Your selected service and display time zone are saved in this browser when storage is available. Sound reminders are opt-in and last only for this page session. No account is needed. Your device clock is the timer’s clock.

Google Analytics is optional and off by default. We load its script and allow its analytics cookies only after you choose “Allow analytics.” Declining leaves the timer fully usable. You can change your choice using “Analytics settings” in the footer. Turning analytics off clears this site’s Google Analytics cookies and reloads the page; it cannot erase data already sent.

If you allow analytics, Google receives page visits, basic browser/device information and approximate location information derived from the network request, including its IP address. Analytics uses a randomly generated cookie identifier to distinguish browsers. We send the page path and title without URL query parameters or fragments, omit the referring page, and do not send form text, account identifiers or timer preferences. Advertising personalization and Google Signals are disabled in our tag.

We set analytics cookies to expire after 90 days without renewing that period on each page view. Your allow/decline choice is saved locally for up to 180 days; if browser storage is unavailable, it applies only to the current page. These local choices and timer preferences are separate from analytics. Our Google Analytics user/event data retention setting is two months, with reset on new activity disabled; this setting does not limit standard aggregated reports. Google processes analytics data under its Privacy Policy; read how Google uses data from partner sites. Our hosting provider also processes requests needed to serve and protect the site, independently of optional analytics.

If a rule appears to have changed, consult the linked official notices and the current information in your game. Follow your service's current instructions if they differ from this site's published schedule.

How to read these times

Each official service has its own time zone. Community NA and Europe times use a UTC reference. The timer and schedule use the same configured rules, and local times are conversions of those scheduled instants. A local date can differ from the service date, so the full schedule includes both.

Check the next scheduled rift, or compare seven days of server and local times.

This is an independent fan tool, unaffiliated with NC or AION 2. If an in-game notice disagrees with this page, follow the notice. Rule changes should be checked against a dated official source before a schedule is updated.

Daily and weekly resets

NCSOFT has not published the Global reset time; the in-game Duty/attendance countdown is authoritative.

NA East, NA West and Europe reset countdowns use the same cut-offs as their rift schedules. At the limit, a reset time becomes pending re-check after the clock change.

• Europe: shown until 25 Oct 2026 01:00 UTC.
• NA East: shown until 1 Nov 2026 06:00 UTC.
• NA West: shown until 1 Nov 2026 09:00 UTC.

Latin America and Asia have no DST cut-off: only their resets are tracker-reported; their rift schedules remain TBD because trackers disagree.

Global servers by region

Source: NC’s official AION 2 server list: [Notice] New Server and Matchmaking Information. Checked 6 Oct 2026.

Each server holds one faction. Server names repeat across regions; each region is its own set. NC says Elyos/Asmodian pairings change periodically, so pairings are not listed. The list may be updated by NC.

Taiwan and Korea server names are not listed because they are not sourced here.
