The AION 2 Global server list now includes both Advanced Access worlds and a separate wave of commercial Launch Servers. Global is divided into five server groups: Europe, NA East, NA West, Latin America and Asia. Every individual home server belongs to only one faction, so Elyos and Asmodians select different servers and are paired against one another for cross-faction content such as the Abyss and Spacetime Rifts.
After the additional Advanced Access servers and the new October 5 Launch Servers are included, the announced Global lineup contains 43 Elyos/Asmodian server pairs — 86 faction-specific home servers in total.
Which AION 2 server should you choose? Pick your region first, then your faction, then the same home server as your friends or Legion. If you are starting without an established group, prioritize a suitable region and a server currently recommended by the client rather than guessing which server will eventually have the highest population.
Updated: October 5, 2026 — includes the commercial Global Launch Server list, expanded Advanced Access lineup and October 14 server-transfer announcement.
AION 2 Global Server List
| Region | Advanced Access Pairs | Launch Pairs | Total Home Servers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Europe | 9 | 9 | 36 |
| NA East | 3 | 5 | 16 |
| NA West | 2 | 3 | 10 |
| Latin America | 2 | 4 | 12 |
| Asia | 3 | 3 | 12 |
| Total | 19 pairs | 24 pairs | 86 servers |
The same server name can exist in multiple regions. For example, EU Siel and NA East Siel are different home servers. Always give your region, faction and server name when coordinating with other players.

Which EU Server Should You Pick?
There is no officially designated "best EU server." More importantly, NC does not label individual European servers as English, German, French, Spanish, Russian, PvE or PvP servers.
Language communities may coordinate around particular worlds, but those are community choices rather than official server rules and can change quickly during launch.
If you play from Europe, use this priority:
- Choose the Europe region for the appropriate regional service.
- Choose Elyos or Asmodian together with your group.
- If your Legion has selected a server, follow the Legion.
- If you have no community preference, compare the servers currently marked or promoted as recommended rather than automatically joining the busiest-looking name.
If you are still deciding between the two factions, see our AION 2 Elyos vs Asmodians guide.
AION 2 NA East Server List
| Type | Elyos | Asmodian |
|---|---|---|
| Advanced Access | Siel | Israphel |
| Advanced Access | Nezekan | Zikel |
| Advanced Access | Vaizel | Triniel |
| Launch | Kaisinel | Lumiel |
| Launch | Yustiel | Marchutan |
| Launch | Ariel | Azphel |
| Launch | Fregion | Ereshkigal |
| Launch | Meslamtaeda | Beritra |
NA East is separate from NA West. Cross-server dungeon support does not mean that NA East and NA West are one home-server region.

If your North American group is split geographically, decide on East or West before creating main characters. Choosing the same faction name on different regional servers does not place you in the same home-server community.

The Global Asia region is separate from the existing Korean and Taiwanese AION 2 services. Characters and progression do not carry between KR/TW and Global.
What Is the Best AION 2 Server?
There is no objective best server. The right choice depends on region, faction, friends, Legion and current capacity.
| Your Priority | What to Choose |
|---|---|
| Best connection | Start with the most appropriate geographical region and test your actual connection. |
| Play with friends | Use exactly the same region, faction and home server. |
| Join a Legion | Follow the Legion's announced region/faction/server. |
| Avoid long queues | Consider a currently recommended or less congested world instead of chasing the most famous name. |
| Play in your language | Follow current community/Legion coordination; individual servers have no official language designation. |
| PvP | Do not choose only by the current enemy-server pairing because NC can change pairings. |
Which AION 2 Server Has the Highest Population?
NC does not publish reliable live population numbers for every Global home server. Queue size, character-creation restrictions and a server being marked as recommended can indicate current demand, but they are not a complete population ranking.
Avoid websites that present exact server-population percentages without explaining where those numbers come from. Launch-week populations can change quickly as new servers open and transfers become available.
If a server is full or login queues are your main concern, check our AION 2 Server Status page.
Are There English, German, French or Spanish AION 2 Servers?
Not officially. AION 2 Global supports multiple interface languages, but NC does not assign individual EU worlds an official English, German, French or Spanish language.
Community groups and Legions can still establish unofficial language hubs. Treat those choices as community coordination rather than a permanent server property.
Why Are Elyos and Asmodians on Different Servers?
AION 2 uses faction-specific home servers. Elyos characters live on Elyos worlds and Asmodian characters live on separate Asmodian worlds.
NC then pairs an Elyos server with an Asmodian server for cross-faction activities. For example, EU Siel can be paired against EU Israphel.
The two names remain different home servers. A pairing does not mean Elyos and Asmodians can quest together there.
Can Server Pairings Change?
Yes. NC explicitly says the Elyos/Asmodian matchmaking pairs will be updated periodically to help maintain faction balance.
That means you should not choose your permanent home server just because you prefer its current enemy server.
Is AION 2 Cross-Server?
NC confirms that instanced content, including dungeons, is available cross-server. This makes picking a lower-population home server less punishing for instanced PvE than it would be in a completely isolated-server MMO.
Cross-server content does not make every server interchangeable. Your home-server community, faction, Legion and some open-world systems still matter.
Once you are established on your server, our AION 2 Guides cover classes, leveling, gear, dungeons and PvP progression. Players who want direct progression assistance can also browse AION 2 Boost services.
AION 2 Server Transfers Start October 14
NC has now confirmed that server transfers are planned to begin on October 14, 2026.
- Transfers are between servers of the same faction.
- Transfers will be initially free.
- Characters created on Advanced Access Servers can only transfer to other Advanced Access Servers during the initial system and cannot use that transfer to move onto commercial Launch Servers.
- Additional restrictions and availability may apply when the system opens.
This makes the Advanced Access vs Launch Server distinction important. Do not start on a server you dislike simply because you assume October 14 will allow an unrestricted move to any newly opened world.
Advanced Access Server vs Launch Server: Which Should You Pick?
Advanced Access Servers opened before October 5 and already contain characters created during the head start. Launch Servers are the additional worlds opened for the commercial Global release.
For a new player, a Launch Server may provide a newer starting community. An Advanced Access Server may have more established players, Legions and progression. Neither type is universally better.
The key restriction is future transfer routing: NC has specifically said that Early Access characters will initially remain within the Early Access server pool when transferring.
How to Choose a Server With Friends
Before anyone creates a main character, agree on these three values:
- Region — for example Europe.
- Faction — Elyos or Asmodian.
- Exact home server — for example Nania or Hadala.
“We are playing EU” is not enough. “EU — Elyos — Nania” identifies the actual home server.
Is There an AION 2 Oceania or Australia Server?
The official Global server list does not contain a dedicated Oceania region. The available Global groups are Europe, NA East, NA West, Latin America and Asia.
Players in Australia or New Zealand should compare their actual connection and the location of their friends or Legion rather than assuming that one Global region will provide the best route for every ISP.
Which AION 2 Server Should You Choose?
Choose the correct region first, then your faction, then coordinate the exact home server with your friends or Legion. Do not select a server solely because it appears popular, has a familiar AION name or currently faces a particular enemy world.
For solo players, a currently recommended server can be a better launch choice than joining a congested world. With cross-server instanced content and initial free transfers beginning October 14, population pressure matters, but it should not override region and faction compatibility.
