World of Warcraft news » Free Character Migration to New Italian Realms

With the Italian-language version of World of Warcraft coming soon, we’ll be opening two new Italian realms in Europe. We look forward to welcoming many new and returning Italian-speaking players, and invite them to experience World of Warcraft in their native language.

Our two new Italian realms will include a PvE realm, Pozzo dell’Eternità, and a PvP realm, Nemesis. They’ll both be added to the same Battlegroup, Misery. These two realms are dedicated to our Italian-speaking community, and therefore support will only be available in Italian.

To allow our Italian community to gather on its two new dedicated realms, we’ll be providing Free Character Migration (FCM) from realms that currently have a considerable number of Italian players. If you are currently on one of the source realms listed below, you’ll be able to move your characters to the designated destination realms.

As it’s not possible to provide free character transfers from every single realm, we’re currently evaluating alternative transfer options for Italian players not covered in this plan. We’re doing our very best to accommodate as many Italian players as possible, but at this time we can’t guarantee free transfers for Italian players on realms not listed below.

You can initiate the migration in your Battle.net account by going into your World of Warcraft Game Management and clicking on Free Character Migration. Your character will then be moved to one of these new realms. This is a one-time, one-way move for characters coming from eligible FCM source realms. For any characters coming from non-eligible realms, you’ll need to use the Paid Character Transfer service.

We’re also offering support for guilds to transfer for free from eligible source realms. While a “Free Guild Master Transfer” is technically not possible, we’ll reimburse the costs of Guild Master Realm Transfers as outlined in our FAQ. Please note that other guild members must initiate their Free Character Migration after their Guild Master Realm Transfer has been initiated.

Please be aware that if the target realms become full, we may have to close the FCM service without warning. If you plan to change realms with friends or with your guild, we recommend that you coordinate the effort to reduce the chance of anyone being left behind.

FCM will be made available in different waves – you’ll find a detailed breakdown below. Each wave will last for two weeks or until the destination realms are full. We’ll be sure to highlight which realms are eligible for free transfers each time a new wave begins. The first wave will start when the Italian realms become available.

We hope you enjoy these new Italian realms!
