It went on to detail the new system put in place to help the issues with New World’s servers. “Whenever a server is full, the server will be greyed out with the messaging ‘Character Creation is temporarily disabled on this server to prevent overpopulation,” read the tweet. A full list of servers and their current status can be seen here. As of this writing, there are 28 servers listed as “full”.
While this change will affect new players with a limited amount of servers, the developer did promise that this would not affect existing players and their characters.
After a series of delays since its original release date of May 2020, New World was released for PC on September 28, 2021.
