600 new recipes, unified hit and crit stats, and boss drops jumping from green to blue quality — the itemization overhaul running underneath everything else Forever is adding.
A new talent milestone for every class, the full Paladin rework Blizzard showcased on stage, and where to find a reliable early look at your class’s new tree before beta even opens.
No realm list, four rulesets instead — plus the two-part naming system solving the one problem that came with every server choice for twenty years.
Beta to summer 2027, laid out in one place — three raid waves, Hardcore’s arrival, and the one line from Blizzard’s own team about what still isn’t off the table.
Legacy points earned account wide, spent per character — the six challenge categories, the three talent trees, and the exact reason Blizzard capped how much you can spend at launch.
Vendors, repairs, crafting stations, and buffs, just for stopping to sit at a campfire — plus the exact reason Blizzard made you wait a moment before you get anything.
A 15v15 battleground built on Eye of the Storm’s structure, with Arathi Basin’s capture mechanics underneath — everything confirmed, and the one detail most coverage gets backwards
New class options for five existing races, plus a full breakdown of how the Skyborne split their casters by faction — including the one naming detail Blizzard’s own marketing gets right that most coverage doesn’t.
Three raids, three different roster sizes, all unlocking the same day — but not until five weeks after launch. Everything confirmed about Barrow Deeps, Hyjal Summit, and Onyxia’s Lair’s return.
Five confirmed, four still unnamed. What we actually know about WoW Forever’s nine new dungeons, and what we’re still waiting to hear.
Four new zones, one built entirely around a race that costs extra to unlock — Mount Hyjal, Riverglades, Shen’dralas, and the floating island where it all begins.
The base game is free with your subscription. The new race isn’t. Here’s exactly what each pricing tier gets you, and why the cheapest pack won’t get you into beta at all.
Blizzard finally said the words on stage: this is Classic Plus. Everything confirmed at BlizzCon 2026 — the name, the release date, and what actually ships on day one.
Stratholme was a living city — purged in a single night by the man who would become the Lich King. The order Uther refused, the dreadlord who turned it into a race, and the vow that sent Arthas north toward Frostmourne.
He rebuilt Stormwind with his own hands and was betrayed by the nobles who commissioned it. The real story behind Deadmines’ final boss — and the daughter who survived him.
