How to Change Realms in WoW Classic (Character Migration)

While embarking on your journey in WoW Classic, you might find yourself wanting to change realms, perhaps to join friends or seek new adventures. Changing realms is possible but comes with considerations:

• Note that characters cannot be transferred between Classic and Retail versions of WoW.
• The process involves selecting the ‘Shop’ button in the main character menu, choosing ‘Services,’ then ‘Character Transfer,’ and following the prompts to select your new realm.

Choosing the right realm is a crucial decision in WoW Classic, affecting your overall enjoyment and engagement with the game. With the latest server population data for February 2024, players are better equipped to make informed choices, ensuring their time in WoW Classic is spent in vibrant, active communities that match their preferences and playstyles.

With this guide to server populations and realms, may your choices lead you to epic journeys and memorable encounters in the world of Azeroth.
