In Patch 6.18, we will be introducing new Worlds to the European data centers and expanding the Japanese data centers. The patch will also introduce the Data Center Travel system, which allows players to temporarily visit other logical data centers within their physical data center.

Patch 6.18 is set to arrive on Tuesday, July 5.

* Maintenance for Patch 6.18 is expected to last 24 hours due to the Japanese/European data center expansions and the implementation of the Data Center Travel system.

European Data Center Expansion

Four Worlds will be added in total, with two Worlds being added to each data center as listed below.

New Worlds in the Chaos Data Center

• Sagittarius
  
• Phantom

New Worlds in the Light Data Center

• Alpha
  
• Raiden

Visit the Lodestone for more information on New World Bonuses.

Japanese Data Center Expansion

In Patch 6.18, a new logical data center, Meteor, will be added to the Japanese data center, and certain existing Worlds will be redistributed within it.

Visit the Lodestone for the maintenance schedule and the period during which eligible players may use the Home World Transfer Service free of charge, as well as effects of World redistribution on certain in-game features.
