The expansion to the 2021 game by Amazon, New World, is set for a global release on PC, Playstation 5, and Xbox Series X/S on October 15, 2024.

Players in Europe and Southeastern Asia-Pacific countries (i.e. Australia, Singapore, New Zealand) will be able to log in to servers from 12am US Pacific Time, or 7am UTC. For all other areas, including the US, Canada, and South American countries, players will be able to experience New World: Aeternum from 6am US Pacific Time, or 11am UTC.
