In an ongoing effort to enhance the New World: Aeternum experience, AGS will be merging several servers by February 25.
Although the launch of New World: Aeternum may have brought in a lot of new and returning players to the game, it's come to a point that some servers are starting to feel an impact on lower populated servers. Naturally, as time goes on, some players move on to other games, or even different servers, leaving the server the left in a dwindling state.
To enhance the overall experience of players across multiple servers, the team has announced that there will be several server merges taking place later this month to increase the overall player interaction while they are playing, maximizing the player count by reducing the total number of servers.
Servers that will be merging include:
Taurus/Asterion/Andrometus/Siren (EU) → Aries (EU) Apus/Phoenix/Sagitta (EU) → Draco (EU) Aaru (EU) → Nysa (EU) Cathaysia (US East) → Hudsonland (US East) Arctica/Kalahari (US East) → Rosa (US East) Kenorland/Cimmeria (US East) → Pangea (US East) Maramma (US East) → Valhalla (US East) Bellatrix/El Nath (US West) → Aquarius (US West) Cursa (SA East) → Alkaid (SA East) Pisces (AP Southeast) → Cerberus (AP Southeast) The process of merging these servers will begin on Tuesday, February 18, which will include the following items:
Server restart for retiring worlds Character creation & transfers disabled on retiring worlds Wars canceled & refunded on retiring worlds Between 2/18 and 2/25, players on retiring worlds will have the option to transfer themselves to another world of their choosing that's in their region The server merges will officially be completed on February 25, where all characters and companies will be automatically moved to their respective new servers. There will be a reimbursement process initiated for transfer tokens used within the last 14 days between merging worlds.

Today marks the first of many double XP weeks in New World: Aeternum! If you still need to max out your character, now is the time.
This week marks the first of multiple week-long double XP events, making it the perfect opportunity for players to max out their characters across a range of different skills, including gathering and refining skills, and overall weapon experience.
Each week will highlight a double XP bonus focused around a different skill - each of these can be highlighted below:
January 28 – February 3: Double Gathering XP Bonus - Gather resources faster than ever! Chop, mine, and harvest your way to mastery. February 25 – March 3: Double Refining XP Bonus - Boost your crafting efficiency by leveling up your refining skills. March 18 – March 24: Double Weapon XP Bonus - Sharpen your combat skills with faster weapon XP gains. April 15 – April 21: Double Weapon XP Bonus - Didn’t max out your favorite weapon last time? Here’s another chance to level up quickly. April 29 – May 5: Double Refining XP Bonus - Another opportunity to refine materials and prepare for crafting greatness. It is believed that part of the release of these double XP events is to drive more appeal towards New World: Aeternum's first round of Seasonal Worlds, which is an always-on PvP world.
For those of you that are hesitant on leveling a new character, the overall leveling experience on these seasonal worlds are heavily boosted, making it quite easy to hit level 65. There are a range of strategies making this even easier. One of the most common (and fastest) strategies to hit level 65 on this seasonal world is highlighted in the video below.

New World: Aeternum receives a list of MAJOR patch notes being introduced with Season 7.
Just 24 hours before the launch of Season 7, the New World: Aeternum community were surprised to see a long list of changes coming to the game, including eight new artifacts, major combat changes, bug fixes, new seasonal events, updated rewards for mutated expeditions, and much, much more.
These changes will be live with the launch of Season 7 on January 21, 2025.
Some of the most drastic updates coming to New World: Aeternum can be found below.
Updates to Outpost Rush:
Matchmaking now updates your MMR based on personal score instead of just wins/losses Updated OPR shop offerings: Added a new buildable wall for adding cover, the Bulwark Added Regen potion Added Cleansing Elixer Added a 25% scoring bonus for fighting near capture points in Outpost Rush. Updates to Economy & Progression:
Schematics from the Hive of Gorgon's Raid have had their drop chance increased and more schematics are available. By player request, we have changed the Gorgonite Inductor Raid Crafting Recipes (the recipes using Gorgon Essence) to no longer give equipment with Magnify. Now, the items crafted using these recipes will have a randomly assigned Attribute Perk. Based on feedback, the way Artifacts are available on the PvP Reward track has been changed. Artifacts are more likely to show up at all levels, and Artifacts are significantly more likely to roll on every level after PvP Track level 50. Added Artifacts from Season 6 Battle pass to the PvP reward track. Some new resources have been added to Raids and Mutated Expeditions to add improved access to max GS gear. By combining Damaged Gorgon's Eyes (a daily limited drop from The Hive of Gorgons and Sandwurm), Mutated Dust (a drop from Mutated Expeditions), and an Azerit Focus (a new crafting material) players can craft an inventory cache for themselves that will grant a few items that can roll up to 725 Gear Score. Health and Regen potions are now more powerful, however they have a shared cooldown and the cooldown has been adjusted to compensate. Spectral Chests in Cutlass Keys now give 45-55 doubloons, up from 14 doubloons. They are also now a source of Goldcursed Coconuts. Fixed an issue causing some Mount Attachments and Charms to not drop as intended. Increased the maximum stack size of Goldcursed Coconuts and Cursed Keys to 10,000 (was 1.). Standardized duration of Winter Convergence item buffs to 40 minutes from 30 minutes. Combat Balancing:
Self Healing - Increased the self-healing reduction in PvP from 10% to 30%. (does not apply to potions). Combat Sprint Delay - Slightly reduced the duration of the sprint delay when hit from a melee attack for light equip loads (1s to 0.85s), and medium equip loads (0.75s to 0.65s). Adjusted the fuel upgrade for Flourish and Finish. Will now only proc once per tick of rapier's bleed and not increase by stacks or number of targets it is on. But value has been increased from 3.5% to 9%. Added GRIT to light attack start ups when using the 300 CON attribute threshold bonus. Updates to Blunderbuss:
Increased the spread (inaccuracy) of the Blunderbuss when target locked onto an enemy player. Updates to Bow:
Fixed an issue where a bow could be fired faster than intended when timing attacks and the Rain of Arrows ability. Fixed an issue where using smartcast with certain bow abilities could cause stuttering. Updates to Fire Staff:
Fixed an issue where the runes of helios ultimate could trigger without meteor shower being cast. Fixed an issue that caused Meteor Shower duration to be 4 seconds rather than the intended 6 seconds. Reduced the disease of Immolation to 10% incoming and 5% outgoing from 20% and 10% respectfully. Reduced the max stacks of that DoT from 5 to 4, so a max of 20% weapon damage instead of 25%. Updates to Hatchet:
Increased the cooldown of Defy Death from 60s to 70s. Slightly Reduced homing max move distance from 4 to 3.75. Updates to Life Staff:
Group or Raid members are now correctly highlighted Red in Group/Raid HUD when out of healing range and Life Staff is equipped. Fixed an issue that let you use certain cancels to increase your light attack rate of fire. Added the ability to remap self targeting on gamepad. When aiming throwable Items while Life Staff is equipped, target locking will now lock onto enemies only, not allies. Updates to Rapier:
Addressed issue where Rapier had a bit more cooldown reduction than intended. Changed up the Red Curtain Passive to have a brief cooldown after each trigger, and fixed some issues where DoTs could trigger activations of cooldown reduction. Updates to Sword & Shield:
Modified the sword Final Blow passive functionality to only increase the threat generation while in heavy equip load. Reduced base threat generation of the sword basic attacks but increased the taunt increase that the heavy attacks provide. Updates to Void Gauntlet:
Updated functionality of Refreshing Precision to have a cooldown per activation instead of doing target limit. For a full list of the season 7 patch notes, click here.
