As expected, SE has changed the status of all Aether, Primal and Crystal worlds to Congested.

All Dynamis worlds remain listed as New.

All EU worlds except the 4 newest EU worlds are Congested, with the latter 4 all Standard. There is no EU world that has New or Preferred status for Road to 90.

Materia has no changes so all worlds remain New.

This is Congested status, not the usual character creation lock that cycles during the day. It's possible that some will be changed back to Standard in patch 7.01 but I wouldn't bet on any changes happening before 7.05.

Hope no one was planning to create new Hrothgar female characters on their Congested NA/EU home worlds when the servers come up. If you still want to make one in the next few weeks you're going to be limited to the Dynamis worlds, Alpha, Phantom, Raiden, Sagittarius and the Materia worlds.
