TL;DR:

• Login server goes live at 10pm US ET/2am UTC
• Restart your launcher for it to auto download our new launcher
• Log in using your new global account that you created at https://accounts.shardsofbritannia.com

Our login server migration will go ahead at the time shown below this post. During this time, the game will be offline for up to 4 hours while we finalise and validate all the moving pieces to make this happen.

We appreciate that the mentioned time might fall within your play window, however we are unable to schedule an alternative time due to staff availability.

Once the migration is complete, you will need to restart your existing launcher and it will automatically download our new launcher. Once that is done, you will log in with your new SoB Global Account (the one you created at https://accounts.shardsofbritannia.com and matches the email you used to /verify with)

As part of this change, on launch the game will send you directly to the character select screen, and on logout the client will be closed. We are investigating putting you back at the character select screen on logout instead, however that may prove challenging. For now we chose to move ahead so that we have direct control over our login server and any outages, of which we hope there will be none!

Thank you all for your patience during this time. While we have extensively tested all elements of the new system, we expect there may still be some bumps along the way. The best way to raise concerns with us will be via #emergency-support-threads in Discord, or via https://uo4.life/ticket
