There are still 9 days left until June 6th, and the national server has begun to warm up in advance, and the national server match of Blizzard games has also given the exact time, so let's take a look at the specific situation.
Following the post on May 25, the official account of the World of Warcraft national server released the latest news again, clearly mentioning that the relevant technical preparations for the opening of the national server are in full swing.
Although this news does not mention the result that players want most (the launch date), this is also the first time that the word "open server" has been officially received after the summer launch.
You must know that the announcement of the opening date of the national server on June 6 has become the consensus of players, and the official mention of the preparation for the opening of the server at this time also means that the official knows what the players want, so the announcement of the opening time on June 6 is also a sure thing, and the opening date should not be too far from June 6.
In addition to when the server will be launched, the second question that nostalgic server players are most concerned about should be the server version, after all, compared to the Cataclysm version, the Lich King version is obviously more attractive.
Although Blizzard did not update the Wrath of the Lich King version to the national server in the CDN released on May 25, but directly updated the national server to version 4.4, judging from the every move of the national server publicity campaign, the Lich King version is still more likely.
In the previous offline exchange meeting of the national server, NetEase used the promotional image of the Lich King to welcome players. At the preparation site of the World of Warcraft exhibition area of the China International Animation Festival held from May 29th to June 2nd, players once again found pictures of the Lich King, which shows that NetEase is planning to use the Lich King to welcome the launch of the national server.
As for why the CDN released by Blizzard on May 25 did not update the Lich King to the national server, Fat Brother said at the time that this may be affected by the update batch, after all, if the national server does not open the Lich King, there is no need for Blizzard to release CDN updates for the Lich King nostalgia server and the Lich King test server when the cataclysm has been opened.
The last piece of news has nothing to do with World of Warcraft players, but is directly related to Blizzard's national server, which is the latest event date for Overwatch.
Overwatch 2 will host a tournament with the China Qualifiers taking place from June 16 to June 30 and the final on August 4. When the national server was officially announced for the first time, it was said that the summer service would be opened, and the final date of Overwatch 2 was only 3 days away from the beginning of autumn.
From the closure of the national server to the present, the CDN of the Overwatch China Division has only been updated twice, the first time is that the server will be removed on January 24, 2023, and the second time is on May 24, 2024, and this CDN is very likely to be prepared for the China Qualifiers on June 16. The competition servers are all available, will the national server be far away?
In short, there are 9 days left until June 6th, and more and more news will come out during this period, just like before the official announcement of the national server on April 10th, players can just wait with peace of mind.
