Philippine clock facts

  • The Philippines uses one nationwide clock, PHT (UTC+8). Manila is on that same clock, so pre-load opens at one moment for every player in the country.
  • The offset does not change in November, so US and European daylight-saving changes move the gap to those clocks, not the Manila clock.
  • Midnight in Manila is 16:00 UTC on the previous day. Use the table for exact conversions to the US and Europe.
  • Manila is the same clock as Perth, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
