Blizzard’s Season of Discovery team is consolidating realms due to low populations on several servers. Here’s the info on what’s happening and what you need to know about the free character transfers.
What’s Going Down
- Lava Lash (US), Lava Lash (EU), and Chaos Bolt (EU) servers have populations that are too low.
- Blizzard is closing these realms to new accounts and opening free transfers to larger servers.
- Players on these realms can transfer to Wild Growth PvE or Crusader Strike RP-PvP in their respective regions.

Blizzard-US
Lava Lash isn’t where we want it to be. We generally try to let roleplay realms do their thing, but it’s looking pretty sparse even after recent transfers.
So, we’re closing Lava Lash to new accounts and opening free transfers to Wild Growth (PvE) and Crusader Strike (RP-PvP)
Blizzard-EU
After looking at last week’s numbers, it’s clear that the RP realm here isn’t holding up population-wise for the best WoW experience.
