New World: Amazon Disables Family Sharing on Steam

Amazon uses further action to restrict gold-selling in New World. Until further notice, Family Sharing is no longer possible via Steam. Who played the MMORPG about a family account, must pause for the time being. Only the owner themselves can still start New World about his Steam account.

Why is Family Sharing Disabled for New World?

According to community manager Luxendra, the function was now disabled for indefinite time due to increased bots, gold sellers and players who want to deal with a spell. The Developer Team did not easily favor the decision because it knows that there were players who use Family Sharing for the actually intended purpose. But the current situation in MMORPG would force them to these measures.

Gold sellers often create - Via Family Sharing - new characters in New World to sell their collected gold. In addition to deactivation, Amazon has initiated further steps. Accordingly, players now have to reach at least level 10 to be able to trade with gold. In addition, the account must be registered for at least 72 hours.

Many players have already been banned

In recent days, the developers have locked several accounts that either a gold exploit in New World (Buy Now 39.99 €) or were involved in gold-selling. Among other things, the last trade had to be switched off. Also in the future Amazon will be strict against appropriate players. In an extensive blog post, the makers have come to a variety of problems in New World on Thursday. We have summarized the most important highlights in a message for you.
