Yeah. And the even bigger challenge will be seamlessly transferring the current system over to the new system. Since character wipes have been rules out, everything from the old system has to be preserved, and the switch-over has to be unnoticeable to the players. I am sure it is no easy engineering feat, especially for a team used to making games, not server software.
