Amazon Game Studio’s new massively multiplayer online RPG New World is right around the corner. It’s been five years since the initial New World announcement at TwitchCon, and the time has finally come for a worldwide release. Below you can find our New World countdown to the release time, so you can follow along and know exactly when the servers are opening up.
New World has gone through multiple alpha and beta tests within the last two years. The initial launch date (August 28) was pushed back one month to September 28, 2021, so Amazon could conduct additional development and implement changes based on the beta test feedback. The time has finally come, and we’ll all be venturing through Aeternum together this week.
