25 hours Maintenance? Servers will be reachable?

As the titles says , the next Maintenance will be held
From Mar. 26, 2014 8:00 to March 27, 2014 9:00 (GMT) *Completion time may be subject to change.

Servers are going to be offline? or what exactly?

Yes, a maintenance means the servers will be offline.

Patch 2.2 and system upgrades

If you read the page you link to, the second sentence is: During this period, FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn will be unavailable. That means that during that time period, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will be unavailable.

You must be new to MMO's, the answer to your question is in the link you provided.

Yes, the game will literally be down for 25+ hours. Just make plans to do something Wednesday! :)

So...Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will be unavailable? :P But yeah, every maintenance they do, especially patch days, they take the servers offline to implement new content and various changes.

With any luck the maintenance will wind up shorter than that but yes the game will be offline for close to if not a full 25 hrs.

And you probably want to do something Thursday AM and Early PM because when 2.1 was implemented at the last possible minute they extended maintenance.
