ArcheAge: Unchained servers will be evolving soon, allowing you to meet new allies and forge new alliances along the way. Server Evolutions will be making their way to you this March!
When will the Server Evolution take place?
The Server Evolution is scheduled to take place on March 4, 2021 for the ArcheAge: Unchained servers.
Which Servers are Affected?
After carefully looking at the active populations of all servers, we have determined which servers will be involved in the merge process and how they will be combined. Once these servers are merged, the resulting new servers’ populations will be roughly equal to each other in terms of population.
ArcheAge: Unchained
On NA, Jergant, Stena, and Kaylin will be merged to form Akmit.
Denistrious, Runert, Tyrenos and Wynn will be merged to form Marmas.
On EU, Belstrom, Crazzian and Tinnerph will be merged to form Okape.
Gildaron, Halnaak and Alexander will be merged to form Hieronimus.
I’m on an affected server! What now?
Be sure to prepare yourself for the upcoming evolution by clearing out your mailbox, selling your additional tradepacks and that's it! Your character will be evolved onto the new server after the maintenance and everything else will be taken care of. Be sure to get in your final sales before the Auction Houses lock preventing future sales.
Please note that the usage of any 7-day buffs during this time will not be compensated if they run out during the server evolution timeframe. Please use these buffs carefully!
What is the Schedule for Evolution?
For ArcheAge: Unchained

During these periods, we may launch a single server at a time in order to control server loads and give everyone a chance to log in. During this time there may be queues on Evolution worlds due to the number of players attempting to log in at once.
