City of Heroes Offers Free Server Transfers Through January

Posted Wed, Dec 16, 2009 by Martuk

City of Heroes players will have the opportunity to take advantage of free server transfers through the end of January. The option for transfer began on December 15th and will run through the end of January 2010, but the offer isn't without limit. Players will only be able to complete up to six transfers a week and not all the items are transferable, so make sure you check out the Transfer FAQ before you happily go jumping servers and find something missing. Also on the negative, any Supergroup affiliation, Prestige, and access to Supergroup base items are lost along with the possibility that you could also lose your name. The offer is a good one, but think hard about it before you decide to make the move.

City of Heroes® is proud to announce that starting today character transfers between servers (within North American OR European server lists) will become free to all players and remain that way through the end of January 2010.

  • Starts:Tuesday, December 15, 2009 at 8:59 a.m. PST (11:59 a.m. EST)
  • Ends: Sunday, January 31, 2010 at 11:59 p.m. PST (2:59 a.m. EST)

Now you will have more freedom to fully enjoy the game and each other...but don't go haphazardly jumping servers without knowing the Character Transfer limit and all the other facts. Visit our Knowledge Base to learn all the specifics so that you can make educated transfer decisions. Amongst other things to bear in mind:

  • Transfers are not available between North American and European servers.
  • You will be able to complete up to 6 transfers a week (7-day period) per account.
  • Not all possessions will transfer over with your character so be sure to read the corresponding Knowledge Base article before you decide to transfer a character.
  • Super-group affiliation, Prestige and access to your Supergroup base items will be lost.
  • You may lose your character's name when transferring from a server.

Then all you have to do is transfer away and enjoy the holiday server ride!
