Character Name Reservation Details

Hello, TERA fans!

Our last closed beta is right around the corner, but we’re also hard at work preparing for the other events before launch. With April starting to fly by, we are looking forward to seeing you in the upcoming Early Character Creation and Open Beta Test!

Between the fifth closed beta and the open beta test, there is a large patch (over 4GB) due to the amount of new content we’ll be adding for OBT. We want to give folks enough time to download the patch so we've tweaked the dates to ensure people will have ample time to get ready. We will start the patching process immediately after CBT5 ends at 11:59PM PDT on 4/8, and the early character creation period will start at 7:00PM PDT on 4/13 to maximize the time available for downloading.

For our pre-order users, we want to make it really meaningful to participate in the beginning of TERA as one of the founders of the game. To that end, our pre-order users will be able to access the open beta test starting on 4/19. This pre-order perk won't affect the overall length of the OBT however, as everyone will be able to enjoy TERA from 4/20 to 4/23.

very modest amount of servers. i HOPE this means they are gonna play it smart instead of every other recent mmo in existence. Don't add new servers unless absolutely necessary until at least 1month after release

Servers are up!

Just a heads up: Valley of Titans is now at "near capacity" instead of unavailable. So if anyone needs to, now is the time to act!
