Greetings Inheritors,

After our initial announcement about the server merge schedule on May 1st (“Server Merge Schedule”), we took a careful look at all of your feedback and decided to tentatively put the server merge plans on hold.

The free server transfers for ArcheAge: Unchained Dahuta & Shatigon servers will take place as originally planned after the maintenance on May 11 (Thurs) and up until June 29 UTC 08:00. You can view the details in the May 11 (Thurs) Patch Notes.

• You can purchase the graduation reward at the Marketplace once per account.
  • Please make sure you purchase it before transferring servers.

 
We are revisiting and reconsidering the original server merge plans, so we'll share with you what has been confirmed for now. We will be providing free server transfers for players transferring from the Kyprosa and Erenor servers to the Leviathan and Ospheros servers. We're also planning on providing a transfer period for players transferring from ArcheAge: Unchained's Nehliya, Kyrios, Arcadian, and Stormraw servers to the Ardenia and Kraken servers. We will carefully consider the details about the free server transfers, and share with you the details in a separate announcement once we're ready.

We'll continue to actively implement your feedback for our game service, and promise that we will strive to do our best to improve the game service.

We thank everyone for all of your love and support for ArcheAge and ArcheAge: Unchained!

Thank you.
