  • Demand Overload: The game's launch day peaked at over 700,000 concurrent players, which proved far too much for the game's servers to handle, resulting in queue times of hours just to get in. Amazon's initial response to this overload was to announce the launch of additional servers over their various regions and allow players to transfer their characters between servers for free, allowing them to more easily find low-density servers without the hassle of potentially losing progress or being unable to play with friends.
  • Release Date Change: The game was originally advertised by Amazon to release in May 2020, but was delayed to an August 2021 release date. During the game's closed beta that began in July 2021, Amazon announced the game would be delayed a little longer to allow for additional development based on early feedback, finally launching in September 28, 2021.
