Garena Free Fire MAX was scheduled to release its new update OB33 on 23rd March 2022. As always around the time of such updates, Garena takes down all their servers to roll out the new changes. Players who try to login to the Garena server when maintenance is ongoing or without updating their game with the latest version may end up facing the ‘503 Service Unavailable’ error while trying to open the game. Usually players can wait for a few hours after maintenance has gone live and they’ll be able to access the game again. However, sometimes players may encounter the ‘503 Service Unavailable’ error for up to 12 hours after the maintenance patch. Here is how to fix the 503 service unavailable error.
