Server transfers can give players a chance to join friends, find a better community, or move away from a crowded server. However, transferring a character in Aion 2 is not simply a matter of selecting a new destination. The available dates, server restrictions, character requirements, and name changes all need to be checked before you confirm the move.
Our team recommends reviewing your character's equipment, inventory, and progression before starting the process. Players preparing their Aion 2 Items and other character resources should also make sure they understand which rewards and purchases remain accessible after a transfer.
Aion 2 Free Server Transfer Dates and Phases
The transfer schedule is divided into separate phases for Advanced Access characters and characters created during the free-to-play launch. Players should check the window that applies to their account instead of assuming that every server can transfer at the same time.
| Transfer Phase | Start Date | End Date | Important Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Advanced Access servers | October 13, 2026 PDT / October 14, 2026 CEST | October 20, 2026 PDT / October 21, 2026 CEST | Initially intended for eligible characters on Advanced Access servers. |
| Free-to-play launch servers | October 20, 2026 PDT / October 21, 2026 CEST | October 27, 2026 PDT / October 28, 2026 CEST | Transfer eligibility depends on the phase and destination server. |
These dates should be checked against the latest in-game notices before making a decision. Server availability and transfer restrictions may change during the event, so an open transfer window does not necessarily mean every destination is available.
Before starting a transfer, confirm both the event window and the destination server's current availability. Meeting the basic requirements does not guarantee that every destination will accept another character.
Which Characters and Servers Are Eligible?
Not every character or server combination is eligible for a transfer. Before choosing a destination, check the character's level, required progression, faction, region, and current Legion status.
Character Requirements
- The character must be at least Level 10.
- Required village progression or other eligibility requirements must be completed.
- The character must not be enrolled in a Legion when the transfer requirements prohibit it.
- The character and destination server must meet the restrictions for the active transfer phase.
Complete these checks before opening the transfer interface. If a character does not meet the requirements, you may need to finish the relevant progression or leave the Legion before attempting to transfer.
Faction and Region Restrictions
Transfers are subject to faction and regional restrictions. Elyos characters must remain Elyos, while Asmodian characters must remain Asmodian. A transfer also needs to stay within the permitted region.
Advanced Access Versus Free-to-Play Launch Servers
The transfer phase determines which server types are available as destinations. During the initial phase, Advanced Access characters are restricted to eligible Advanced Access servers rather than freely moving to free-to-play launch servers. The later phase has different options for eligible free-to-play characters.
Because these restrictions can affect where your character can go, confirm the destination in the transfer interface instead of relying only on a server's name or population status.
Transfer Costs, Character Slots, and Name Changes
The basic transfer is described as free, with no Quna charge for the standard service. However, additional character-slot requirements and server restrictions may affect the final process. Check the current rules before assuming that every part of a multi-character transfer will be free.
Character Slots and Additional Costs
Players transferring multiple characters should review the available character slots on the destination server. The transfer rules described for this event indicate that slot availability can limit how many characters can move to a server.
- Check the number of available character slots before beginning.
- Review the transfer interface for any destination-specific restrictions.
- If additional slots are required, confirm the displayed cost before proceeding.
- Do not assume that a slot will become available automatically when another character is transferred.
Some transfer information indicates that an additional slot may cost 1,000 Quna per character when transferring more than four characters and the destination does not have enough slots. Because costs and eligibility can change, treat the amount as a detail to verify in the live interface before confirming a transfer.
Prepare for a Forced Character Name Reset
A character's name may need to be reset during the transfer process. If the desired name is already being used on the destination server, you may not be able to keep it. Having a few alternative names ready can make the process easier.
Do not assume that creating a placeholder character on the destination server will reserve a name for your incoming character. Review the current name-change rules and follow the instructions provided by the game.
Which Items and Rewards Remain Available After Transfer?
Before moving a character, review which rewards and account-related benefits remain accessible and which are tied to a particular server. This is especially important if you have purchased packages, claimed limited-time rewards, or invested time in character-specific progression.
Account-Wide Rewards and Cosmetics
Some account-wide cosmetics and titles may remain available after a transfer. The transfer information also describes certain Founder’s Pack wings and skins, including Black Dragon Wings and Blazing Sun Wings, as accessible through a free shop.
However, not every reward should be assumed to transfer automatically. Check each reward's terms and the current in-game information before moving your character.
Memberships and Other Items
The reported transfer rules distinguish between account-wide benefits and server-specific purchases. For example, a 30-day special Quai membership may remain tied to the server where it was purchased. Certain supply and styling chests may also be excluded from automatic transfer.
- Review account-wide cosmetics and titles.
- Check the availability of Founder’s Pack rewards after the transfer.
- Confirm whether memberships remain tied to the original server.
- Review supply chests, styling chests, and other rewards individually.
For players preparing their character economy, it is worth reviewing their Aion 2 Kinah plans alongside their inventory and equipment. The important point is to understand which resources are available on the destination server and which benefits may remain attached to the original server.
Summary
Our team recommends completing a few basic checks before confirming an Aion 2 server transfer. Taking a little time to review the rules can help avoid problems with destination availability, character names, slots, and rewards.
- Confirm the transfer phase and its start and end dates.
- Check that your character meets the level and progression requirements.
- Verify faction, region, and destination-server compatibility.
- Check available character slots and any additional costs.
- Prepare alternative character names in case a reset is required.
- Review memberships, cosmetics, Founder’s Pack rewards, and other items.
- Confirm the latest rules in the game's official notices or transfer interface.
A server transfer is easier to manage when you know what can move, what may remain behind, and which requirements must be met. Check the latest in-game information before confirming your destination, especially if you are moving several characters or have server-specific rewards.
