Over the past 12 months, Blizzard has made a concerted effort to shut down private servers. Many in the community believe this is in preparation for Classic Plus, which is expected to be announced at this yearโs BlizzCon.
Private servers such as Everlook, Project Epoch, Stormforge and especially the popular Turtle WoW have all been shut down or are in their final days.
One private server that has weathered the storm is Ascension WoW. Not only has it stayed online, but it has also been bold enough to launch its own Classic Plus server, Conquest of Azeroth, with it's Beta set to launch next month.
Current speculation is that Ascension WoW data centres are hosted in Russia or other Eastern European countries which make it difficult for Blizzard to take down.
