WEBZEN, a global leader in next-generation free-to-play games, announces a server consolidation for the full 3D MMORPG, MU ONLINE. To create a more exciting and balanced environment for all players to enjoy, the VALHALLA and YGGDRASIL servers will merge to create one unified server. The game’s other two servers, HELHEIM and MIDGARD, will remain the same. This consolidation will take place on January 15, 2014* during Regular Scheduled Maintenance, Global Server Time (*Schedule is subject to change. Exact times will be announced soon).
For the first time ever, VALHALLA and YGGDRASIL will join forces in the legendary continent of MU. In January, both servers will merge into one server for MU ONLINE. For players that have accessed the game from one of the merging servers since August 1, 2013, all character, storage and item information will be saved. However, for players who have accounts on both servers, only the data from the server they played on the most will be maintained. For those who have not logged in since August 1, 2013, only the data from the server which contains the highest level character will be transferred and all other information will no longer be available.
After the server consolidation for MU ONLINE takes place, all information from players’ Gens, Guilds, Friend Lists, Letter Boxes and Windows Lists will be cleared. Users are encouraged to keep record of these details before VALHALLA and YGGDRASIL are merged. If two characters from either server share the same name, both names will be changed automatically. After server consolidation is complete, character names can be altered on the Character Selection screen. In addition, all Event Map information (Devil’s Square, Blood Castle, Chaos Castle, Temple of the Welcoming, etc.) for the combined servers will be reset.
The last Arka War for VALHALLA and YGGDRASIL before sever consolidation is scheduled for December 21, 2013 (GST). The last Castle Siege will take place on December 22, 2013 (GST). These events will be temporarily unavailable after these dates and will resume in January. All activity for both Arka War and Castle Siege will be reset at that time. (Exact dates and times will be announced soon).
Additional details on the upcoming server merge will be available on the MU ONLINE game page.
