Free Character Migration in WoW Classic Era, Seasonal, or Hardcore Realms
Common Problems
- I don't see the option to transfer for free from my realm.
- I can't start free transfer to move my character from Hardcore realm.
- What transfers are available in Season of Discovery?
Note: WoW Classic Hardcore Free Character Transfers are temporarily disabled. Customer Support cannot provide free transfers. Learn more.
Free Character Transfer is a free service to move a character to and from select realms. Check our Character Migration Information and Restrictions article on how to start a free transfer.
Free Character Transfers may only be available for a limited time. Blizzard Customer Support cannot provide free transfers.
Note: Free Transfers from Deviate Delight (US) and Zandalar Tribe (EU) are currently disabled. In addition, it is not possible to use a Paid Character Transfer to either of the two realms.
Currently (with the exception above) WoW Classic Era characters can be transferred for free to:
| The Americas | Europe |
|
|
In addition to overall Character Migration Restrictions:
- You can only transfer characters from and to the same realm type (PvP or PvE)
- You can't transfer characters from a realm that is already connected to the above listed realms
Hardcore Characters (dead or alive) can be transferred at any time for free from a Hardcore realm to one of the Classic Era realms:
| The Americas | Europe |
|
|
|
|
|
|
*While other Classic Era realms are not offered to be transferred to, most of them are connected to the listed realms.
Keep in mind that you can't transfer your character to or between Hardcore realms, not with Free Migration, nor Paid Character Transfer.
Please keep an eye on the official Season of Discovery forums for any information regarding free character moves for Season of Discovery realms for The Americas and Europe.
Note: Initiating a Free Character Migration on a Season of Discovery realm will clear the moving character's mailbox. This includes mails from the Auction House. To avoid the loss of mail, we suggest clearing your mailbox before performing the transfer.
