How to transfer to another server in New World Aeternum

Transferring your character to another server in New World is fairly straightforward. It requires you to use the free Character Transfer token. With this item, you can migrate your entire account and your character's progression into an alternate server of your choice.

As per the official developer blog, you will retain the following items and progression features when you transfer a character within the same region:

All character progression including character level, weapon mastery, in-game titles, and much more.
All currency that you earned playing the game.
Your Faction alliance and progress throughout your journey.
Your inventory and storage.
All quest progress that you completed.
Your houses and housing decorations that were collected over time.

It must be noted that character transfers are only possible within the same region. You cannot server transfer to regions of the world. Furthermore, if the server of your choice or the world is in maintenance, you must wait for it to complete before beginning the transfer process.

That said, let us explore how you can server transfer in New World Aeternum:

Launch New World and log into your account. Enter the server that you had initially joined and have progressed through till now.
Head towards a settlement or an outpost.
Proceed to leave your company and ensure that all your trading orders have been canceled and made void.
Open the store in-game and head to "Character Transfer".
Use your free Character Transfer token in the game. Select the world that you desire to join from the transfer list offered in the store menu.
Confirm your transfer. Upon doing so, you will be logged out, and your character will be transferred to the server that you had chosen from the menu.
Log back in, and upon doing so, you will render into a brand-new world and server.

Why is Character Transfer menu empty on my end?

After the release of New World Aeternum on consoles, some players are reportedly experiencing an issue where no options appear on the transfer list once you try to go into the Character Transfer menu. This is acknowledged by the developers as a bug.

A Discord post from a developer correspondent made the following comment on this in October:

"Transfers are not possible to purchase on Xbox at this time. The team is working on a resolution."

If you're currently facing this bug, it's likely to be a purchase/storefront issue on your platform. In any case, there's no user-end solutions to this, so you will have to wait till it gets officially addressed and resolved.
