New World Announces a Small Round of New Server Merges and Transfers from Fresh Start Worlds

mmorpg.com:

Another round of server merges will be coming to New World soon, and the team has announced transfers from Fresh Start worlds are available. 

There’s no date announced yet for the server merges, but Amazon Games has announced there will be merges in three regions. Those regions are Central EU, US-East, and South America. In Central EU, three servers–Artemis, Cleopatra, and Crassus–will all merge into Nyx. US-East will see Orofena merge into Maramma, and Amarah and Seer both merge into Lilith. South America will merge two servers into one, Gaia and Artorius. 

Overall, this round of merges is small, with a total of seven servers merging into four that will remain. Amazon has said that they aim to keep monitoring the situation on servers using a variety of important metrics, in order to keep populations healthy enough. Now that the new seasonal model has been fully underway for a couple of weeks now, it seems that those key metrics are behind the team’s goals. 

When it comes to server transfers, charactersmade on Fresh Start worlds can now transfer out of those servers to a legacy server. There’s also the option to transfer out into a new region. Of course, there are some requirements and restrictions. The most important is that this transfer will require a transfer token to initiate. If you don't already have one, you'll have to buy one from the store. You'll also only be able to transfer from Fresh Start to a standard server, as no one can transfer to a Fresh Start world. 

There are a number of rules still applicable to a transfer, with some extra for regional switches, but the change is that transferring off of Fresh Start servers is now possible. 

As for those upcoming server merges, those dates should be announced
