The developers plan to add a character transfer feature to the MMO New World, which is still somewhat congested at times. However, issues persist, prompting the announcement that the functionality would take even more time.

Because of the enormous demand for Amazon's upcoming MMO hit New World, users will have to wait in long lines to place their bet. Because the servers are so overburdened, Amazon Game Studios' creators aim to create a simple character transfer. This should allow for a more equitable distribution of participants across all existing servers. If only the character switch hadn't taken so long.

[#NWSTATUS UPDATE] During our testing we uncovered some edge cases where the transfer experience does not meet our standards for release.

In the meantime, please read up in the link for how character transfers will work once it is ready to go live. https://t.co/3ScS3bhZxD

The developers of New World explain in an official forum post that there are still some issues with character transfer that are delaying deployment. The quality would not yet be up to the developers' expectations. As a result, the engineers will take a little longer to resolve these issues, so that everyone can obtain a free token for a server transfer later.

Meanwhile, the creators describe how character transfer will operate in New World in a forum post. As a result, a player must first log into his character, which means that being in an appropriate wait is sufficient. Then, in a different tab, gamers must enter the in-game store to get a token for the server transfer. Furthermore, the participant must have no active offers to sell or buy and must have left any organization. Furthermore, the player must be in a safe haven.

Once the character transfer is complete, the user should proceed to the new server with their whole character progression, faction affiliation, entire inventory including storage space, entire assets, house, and quest progression. Because the friends list is world-specific, it cannot be moved.
