StarSavior Server Merger: Key Takeaways
- Three servers become one: Korea, Japan, and Asia will merge into the Asia server. Global remains separate.
- Your accounts stay separate: Existing progress is retained, and players with multiple accounts can select which one to access.
- Check account linking: Players with multiple regional accounts should review platform links before October 22. Cross-region linking restrictions remain in place.
- Competitive systems change: Group numbers will be reassigned, Gauntlet Ban Levels reset, and some ranking reward brackets adjusted.
- Duplicate guild names: Temporary regional suffixes will be added, with affected guilds receiving a one-time name change request.
Important: Exact maintenance hours have not yet been announced. Players should check the official notice before October 22.
StarSavior is merging its Korean, Japanese, and Asian servers on October 22, 2026, bringing players from all three regions into a single service named Asia.
Developer STUDIOBSIDE confirmed the merger in an October 14 announcement, explaining that the consolidation will take place during scheduled maintenance. Although players will share the new Asia server, their existing accounts will remain separate, and those with characters across multiple regions will be able to choose which account to access.
The change also affects competitive rankings, Gauntlet bans, and guild names. Players with multiple accounts should pay particular attention to the account-linking restrictions before the merger takes place.
The Global server is not affected and will continue operating separately.
Which StarSavior Servers Are Merging?
The October 22 merger combines three existing services into one regional server.
The former server labels will help players identify where their accounts originated.
STUDIOBSIDE says the merger is intended to provide a better gameplay environment, although the company has not announced specific maintenance hours.
Some content may also become temporarily unavailable during the transition.
What Happens to Existing StarSavior Accounts?
The most important detail is that the server merger does not combine characters or account progress into a single account.
Players who previously maintained separate accounts on the Korean, Japanese, and Asian servers will retain those accounts individually.
How players enter the game after the merger depends on how many accounts they have.
Players with one existing account will enter using that account as usual. Those with multiple accounts will be presented with a selection screen showing their available characters and original servers.
For example, someone who played on both the Korean and Japanese servers will see separate entries labeled Former Korea and Former Japan, alongside their respective nicknames.
After the first login, the game will automatically use the most recently selected account. Players can switch to another existing account through the server selection screen.
Anyone without an account on the affected servers can create a new account on the merged Asia server.
These changes mean players will have access to the same regional service without losing the distinction between their previously established accounts.
Account Linking Has Important Restrictions
Although existing platform links will remain intact, the merger introduces some restrictions that players with multiple accounts need to understand.
STUDIOBSIDE confirms that accounts already linked to platforms will keep those connections after the merger.
However, previously unlinked accounts cannot automatically be combined under one platform account simply because their servers now share the Asia name.
Accounts originating from different servers retain their original linking restrictions.
For example, an account created on the former Japanese server cannot be linked directly with an account originating from the former Asian server.
Players who want to preserve platform access to multiple regional accounts should prepare before October 22.
According to the official FAQ, players wishing to link all their accounts should create separate platform accounts through Google, Apple, or Steam and link each regional account individually before the merger.
Afterward, only one existing regional account can be selected for linking to a particular new Asia platform account.
STUDIOBSIDE also warns that account linking can only be completed once, making the initial selection important.
Be Careful When Resetting Accounts
The official FAQ contains another important warning.
If a player resets an account after the merger, only the currently selected account will be affected. Other accounts on the merged server will remain unchanged.
However, the reset account's information cannot be recovered.
Players managing multiple characters should therefore verify which account is currently active before using any reset function.
Competitive Rankings and Gauntlet Bans Will Change
Bringing three regional communities together also requires adjustments to competitive systems.
Group Ranking numbers will be reassigned to prevent duplicate identifiers. The developer says existing groups will be renumbered in the following order:
Korea → Japan → Asia
New groups created after the merger will receive numbers following the final existing Asia server group.
The Gauntlet Rotation Ban system will also undergo changes.
Pick and win counts for individual Saviors will be combined across the three servers. However, each Savior's accumulated Ban Level will reset when the merger occurs.
Ban Levels will begin accumulating again afterward.
STUDIOBSIDE has also confirmed adjustments to reward brackets in certain ranked content because the competitive pool will become larger.
The announcement does not provide a complete breakdown of the revised reward thresholds, so players should watch for additional details before assuming their current ranking will correspond to the same rewards.
What Happens to Guilds With Duplicate Names?
Guild names present another complication when separate communities are brought together.
If guilds from different servers share the same name, STUDIOBSIDE will temporarily add a suffix identifying their original region.
Affected guilds will receive one Guild Name Change Request in their Guild Inventory.
Only the Guild Leader can use the item to change the guild's name.
The process is handled through:
Guild → Guild Info → Guild Management → Edit Guild Name
The renaming system allows affected guilds to choose a new identity rather than permanently retaining the temporary regional suffix.
What Players Should Do Before October 22
For players with only one account, the transition should be relatively straightforward. Their existing account information will remain available after the merger.
Those who maintain characters across multiple regions have more to consider.
Before maintenance begins, players should review their existing accounts, confirm which ones are linked to Google, Apple, or Steam, and decide whether additional platform accounts are needed to preserve access to multiple regional profiles.
Guild leaders should also be prepared for possible naming conflicts, while competitive players should expect changes to rankings and Gauntlet Rotation Ban levels.
STUDIOBSIDE has not yet specified the exact maintenance hours for October 22. The developer may also temporarily restrict access to some content while the transition is underway.
Players can review the full details through the official server merger announcement and the StarSavior server merger FAQ.
The merger represents a significant change for StarSavior's regional communities. While players' existing accounts will remain separate, bringing the three services together will reshape competitive play and the way multi-account players access their characters.
