If you were planning on playing New World today, and perhaps levelling up your stats, you’re going to need to know if everything is running well on the developer’s side of the game.
Being an online-only MMORPG, you’ll need to have an online connection to the relevant server to play any part of the game, and while maintenance isn’t uncommon, usually the developer behind the title would explain when downtime is planned and for what reason it would be happening.
New World Current Server Status
Sometimes small portions of New World might be unavailable, such as character transfer or character creation, but you might be able to play and get your daily tasks done. At launch New World suffered from a few issues, such as the character transfer taking a long time to be available, but after a short period of time, the game became stable with all the online functionality working properly.

If the developer delivers an update on why it’s down, or when it’s coming back, you’ll find that here as well.
