Table of contents
Regular daily maintenance

Early mornings, before stores open
IIDX cabs in American Round1 locations go through a daily maintenance window, but it happens early in the morning before stores open (in all US continental time zones).
Japan / Asia regions
Every day, 5AM to 7AM JST
This translates to:
- PST: noon - 2pm (1pm - 3pm during Daylight Saving)
- EST: 3pm - 5pm (4pm - 6pm during Daylight Saving)
All of the following will be unavailable:
- eamusement website
- eamusement cloud games (Infinitas) *1 see note below
- Japan and Asian region arcade cabinets *2 see note below
Notes:
- Korean Infinitas service does not have daily maintenance hours for some reason.
- Although it’s not mentioned anywhere officially, on Saturday & Sunday mornings (JST), Japan and Asian arcade cabinets are still playable and do not go through maintenance.
Extended monthly maintenance
All regions
Third Tuesdays of the month, from 2AM to 7AM JST.
- PST: Monday 9am - 2pm (10am - 3pm during Daylight Saving)
- EST: Monday noon - 5pm (1pm - 6pm during Daylight Saving)
If it falls on a national holiday in Japan, it gets moved to the next day.
This applies to all regions, for both arcade and EACloud versions. No exceptions here.
Notes
During maintenance hours, IIDX will run in maintenance mode. You cannot card in, and it will be in a special maintenance mode that only lets you pick from a small pool of songs.
New content (unlocks, events) typically appear after the Japanese maintenance window ends, even though US region cabs don’t go through maintenance during that time.
Fairly often, the maintenance ends a few minutes before the scheduled time, but don’t bet on it.
There is a twitter bot that will provide you with reminders of extended maintenance.
