Throne and Liberty is taking the MMO market by storm, and the game’s developers have now made it easier for players to access the game’s crowded servers.
Long-standing MMO stalwarts like World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy XIV are still drawing in huge player numbers – thanks in large part to recent expansions like The War Within and Dawntrail. However, Throne of Liberty is currently standing toe-to-toe with these genre giants, as its servers have been packed with over 300,000 players following its October 1 NA/EU/JP region release, placing it in the top five games currently on Steam.
Though longtime MMO fans might have expected Throne and Liberty to be popular, even in a field that is notoriously difficult to break into, the overwhelming swell of new players attempting to gain access to the game has proven to be difficult for Throne and Liberty’s servers to handle.
Due to this early congestion, it has been difficult for some Throne and Liberty players to try out multiple characters, a common part of early MMO progression, particularly for those new to the genre.
Additionally, for gaming groups all looking to dive into this new fantasy frontier, finding a server space to all play together has been trickier than it should, though thankfully the ingenious server transfer feature is looking to tackle that issue.
Amazon Games is looking to make the most of Throne and Liberty’s early success and has promised that addressing player concerns about getting into the game and staying there is a top priority. Server instability and congestion should hopefully soon be a thing of the past, and an encouraging first sign is that North America East servers have had their character creation cap boosted.
The list of servers that have received this boost can be found below. Prospective NA region players, as well as those who have been struggling with existing character limits, will definitely want to dive into one of these active worlds right away.
