World of Warcraft: Forever launches with nine new dungeons, spanning levels 13 through 60. All nine have now been named and detailed following the What’s Next panel recap.

For the full announcement roundup, see our WoW Classic Plus / Forever hub.

All Nine Dungeons

Dungeon Location Level Range
Hall of Thanes Ironforge 13-18
Ruins of Lordaeron Above Undercity 15-20
Excavation Site The Wetlands 24-29
City of Dalaran Dalaran 28-33
Drowned City Off the coast of Stranglethorn Vale 35-40
Krol’dok Stronghold Riverglades 40-55
Alcaz Prison Alcaz Island 48-53
Blackmaw Hold Azshara 55-60
Shaper’s Terrace Un’Goro Crater 58-60
TIP

Hall of Thanes is a burial chamber for dwarven monarchs of old, cleared of Dark Iron intruders. Ruins of Lordaeron sends Horde players helping the Forsaken reclaim heirlooms from a necromancer, while Alliance players have to find their own way in — a similar asymmetry to Hall of Thanes being Alliance-themed but not Alliance-exclusive

What Each Dungeon Is About

City of Dalaran

Deals with the city’s magical protections failing, leaving the Kirin Tor struggling with arcane and demonic trouble inside their own walls.

Drowned City

Is a set of ancient troll ruins that have suddenly risen from the ocean floor, now contested between trolls and naga.

Krol’dok Stronghold

Is a large outdoor dungeon controlled by an ogre civilization in the Riverglades.

Alcaz Prison

Is reportedly where the Defias hold nobles for ransom, with an internal conflict against naga complicating things further.

Shaper’s Terrace

Ties into titan-era ruins in the hills of Un’Goro Crater.

Blackmaw Hold

Is a Furbolg city with deep tunnels and a corruption theme running through it.

Tips & Tricks

Plan your leveling route around all nine now that the full spread is known. With level ranges confirmed from 13 through 60, this gives a real, complete alternative path through Forever’s content.

Don’t expect every dungeon to favor one faction evenly. Several, like Hall of Thanes and Ruins of Lordaeron, lean toward one side thematically while still being accessible to both.
