The server
Similarly to Nostalrius philosophy, we only want to bring back Vanilla to live and enjoy it. The difference is that we feel like it's worth fighting for this dream, a dream that hundred of thousands of people share.
Nostalrius Returns will be 100% free to play and blizzlike. It will be a PVP server.
About us
We are a small team of three made of two developers and one administrator (with sysadmin knowledge) for the moment.
In real life, our developers work for big companies (not video game related though) while the main administrator is a law school student. We are all passionate video gamers and two of us worked on several servers (Vanilla and WOTLK) for the last 6 years.
Our little story
We were playing on Nostalrius for 7 months when we saw the sad news. We met ingame and became close friends. Now that we are unable to play, we know what players are feeling right now. So when we read their official announcement about releasing their source code, we decided we could try to revive this project as soon as possible, before everyone forget the greatest Vanilla server ever made.
How will we proceed?
Since Nostalrius will release their core to the public, we will use it to recreate Nostalrius on our own servers. We also will be able to provide you with your Nostalrius account. It might be a small-scale replica of Nostalrius but it will be Nostalrius. We are actually setting up everything else to prepare ourselves.
Nostalrius team officially announced “we will no longer take the lead”, but they are welcome to the team for the highest positions.
How to avoid Blizzard shutdown?
We will host our realm in an eastern country, where american laws are not enforced.

We will try to have everything ready as soon as possible and contact you immediately with the lastest important news (only the important news, no spam).
