Greetings everyone,

Thanks for your patience while we gathered feedback from today's announcement.

We will have one data center that houses the North America/Europe servers. In the future, we may create additional data centers based on a variety of factors, but currently we have set up one to house the servers created for the NA/EU territories.

I know that there are some that are concerned about latency issues and I can say that we chose the location of the North America/Europe data center after conducting numerous tests from various locations and ensuring that it covers multiple territories.

In phase 3 of the Beta Test, you'll be able to choose your World freely, so please try out servers located in both the Japan data center and the North America/Europe data center. This way, you'll be able to see which fits your needs the best and ensure a great gaming experience.

Yoshida recently made a lengthy post on the topic that we're currently translating and we'll be sure to share it with you as soon as it’s complete.

Thank you again for your continued support.
