Oddly enough, SOE will also be launching a new server in the coming months and they plan on tapping the EverQuest community in the future for name ideas.
Players will be able to transfer their characters to a different server free of charge for a full seven days after their character has been moved to a new server due to the merges, and SOE will also be offering reduced prices on a number of Marketplace items during the transition period between June 22 and July 6.
