I've spent years of my life traveling across Azeroth, fighting people, demons, monsters, boars, and murlocs in World of Warcraft. It's been a long and glorious adventure, but there's always been a problem. The one thing that's always been missing, especially when you compare WoW to other MMOs like Lord of the Rings Online, Final Fantasy 14, or the Elder Scrolls Online, is the lack of player housing. There's never been anywhere to call home, but after more than two decades, that's about to change. In the next expansion, World of Warcraft Midnight, player housing will finally arrive.

During today’s Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct, Blizzard announced its next big plans for World of Warcraft: Classic. Shocking no one, it’s planning to move onto the next expansion in 2025: Mists of Pandaria. As with other Classic expansions, Mists of Pandaria will launch with “some changes” to its original form, but will largely retain the same content and features from when it first released in 2012. Among other new features, Mists of Pandaria introduced the continent of Pandaria, the playable Pandaran race that could join either the Alliance or the Horde, the Monk class, **** battles, Scenarios, and flexible raiding. Notably, though, this will be a different experience than the one offered during the recent Mists of Pandaria: Remix event, which allowed players to speed level through Pandaria with new spells and abilities, new items, and other twists on its original gameplay. The addition of Mists of Pandaria furthers World of Warcraft: Classic’s steady march to catch up with existing World of Warcraft content. However, recently some Classic players have begun to criticize the direction of the game and lament how far away it’s gotten from the original Classic feel as expansions have been added. While Blizzard has done some things to address this, such as add new Classic modes like ********* and Season of Discovery, players are increasingly asking for more opportunities to replay the oldest content. For those players, Blizzard announced that it will be adding new “vanilla” Classic realms on November 21. This will include new PvP, PvE, and new “********* mode” realms, which will go through the same steady cadence of patch updates as past Classic realms, with the Molten Core raid launching a few weeks after launch. These new realms (****** the ********* realms) will eventually progress to The Burning Crusade Classic, giving players the opportunity to start all over once more and progress through early WoW content. World of Warcraft: Classic’s Mists of Pandaria update will launch sometime in 2025. You can catch up with everything announced from today’s Warcraft Direct right here, including remasters of Warcraft I and II, the next patch for The War Within, and teases of the next WoW retail expansion.

World of Warcraft is gearing up for its next major patch coming early next year, which will send players to a location that’s been talked about in the game for years, but never visited: the goblin capital of Undermine. With patch 11.1, “Undermine(d)”, players will visit the goblin city of Undermine ******* deep in the earth, where they’ll ally themselves with one of the four major goblin cartels and navigate the complex politics of the city. They’ll receive a new customizable ground mount specifically built for use in Undermine (it’s a fancy car) that goes really, really fast. As usual for a new major patch, Undermine(d) will bring with it numerous new activities. There’s a new arena map, and a new dungeon, Operation Floodgate, which will join the remaining four The War Within launch dungeons in the Mythic pool. There will also be two new delves, some new variations on existing delves, and new story and updates for delve companion Brann Bronzebeard. Finally, there’s a new eight-boss raid, The Liberation of Undermine, which will take teams through the city itself and into the decadent heart of the goblin empire, where players will finally ****** goblin faction leader Gallywix. Undermine is a significant location in the Warcraft universe, though this is the first time players will visit it. In Warcraft’s history, Undermine was the underground site beneath the isle of Kezan that goblins claimed for their capital after rebelling against the Zandalari trolls. However, during the Cataclysm, the volcano the city was situated beneath erupted. The goblins evacuated the surface of Kezan, and Undermine was thought to have been destroyed. However, there have been hints ever since then that Undermine is still operational, and the new patch will allow us to see the city for the first time. World of Warcraft patch 11.1 “Undermine(d)” is planned for release early next year, with a patch 11.2 coming in the summer. You can catch up with everything announced from today’s Warcraft Direct right here, including remasters of Warcraft 1 and 2, updates to World of Warcraft: Classic, and teases of the next WoW retail expansion, Midnight.

Today’s Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct largely focused on updates to games that we’ll see in the next several months to early next year. However, the presentation ended with one big tease that’s farther out – a major feature coming to World of Warcraft’s next expansion that players have been asking about for years: player housing. The presentation didn’t offer any real details about exactly how player housing would work or what it would entail. All we learned is that the feature is in the works, and that we’ll finally see it in World of Warcraft: Midnight, the game’s next expansion planned for a full reveal in late summer of 2025. The idea of player housing has been toyed around with in expansions going as far back as the Warlords of Draenor. At the time, the “Garrison” feature was floated as WoW’s answer to player housing, but ultimately fell short of the customizability and more permanent nature of player housing in other MMORPGs, such as Final Fantasy 14. Garrisons were ultimately abandoned at the end of Warlords of Draenor, serving no real lasting purpose for most players, and Blizzard hasn’t revisited the idea of player housing since. Notably, Guild Wars 2 just implemented player housing earlier this year as well, suggesting the feature is a popular one for MMO players. For now, we don’t know much else about what World of Warcraft’s next expansion, Midnight, will entail. We did see a content roadmap during the presentation that suggests the expansion will be officially unveiled in late summer of 2025. Midnight will be the second part of what Blizzard is calling “The Worldsoul Saga”, which also encompasses The War Within and the expansion following Midnight, entitled The Last Titan. You can catch up with everything announced from today’s Warcraft Direct right here, including remasters of Warcraft I and II, the next patch for The War Within, and the next update for World of Warcraft: Classic.

Blizzard just wrapped up its Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct, a nearly hour-long presentation featuring numerous updates from across the Warcraft franchise - almost like a miniature BlizzCon. We heard about World of Warcraft’s next major update, a tease for its next expansion, new updates for World of Warcraft Classic, some long-awaited remasters, and planned updates for both Hearthstone and Warcraft Rumble. If you missed the Direct, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Here’s everything Blizzard showed at its Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct today: World of Warcraft: The War Within next major update unveiled First up, retail World of Warcraft, which is currently near the end of the first major story beat of the expansion The War Within. Today, we got a look at the first major patch of the expansion, entitled “Undermine(d)”, which will take players into the underground goblin capital of Undermine for the first time ever. The patch, which is planned for early next year, will include a new customizable vehicle, new story, a new arena map, a new dungeon, two new delves, a new raid, and a number of other updates. You can read more about everything planned for 11.1, Undermine(d), right here. World of Warcraft: Midnight will feature player housing at last At the very end of the presentation, Blizzard gave us a surprising “one more thing” tease of its next planned expansion: Midnight. Though Midnight is still a long ways away, today we learned that it will include a long-requested feature: player housing. No details were provided on this in today’s presentation, but we’re expecting to hear more late next summer when Blizzard fully unveils Midnight to the world. World of Warcraft: Classic is headed to Pandaria As expected, World of Warcraft Classic continues apace through the expansions, with Blizzard announcing that it will be moving to Mists of Pandaria in 2025. But for those who might be frustrated with Classic seemingly racing to catch up with retail through World of Warcraft’s expansion history, Blizzard is also dropping new “vanilla” Classic realms on November 21. The realms will include fresh PvE, PvP, and ********* servers, all of which will slowly progress through Classic’s cadence of updates, with the Molten Core raid opening a few weeks after their launch. In addition, the PvE and PvP realms (sorry, *********) will eventually move into The Burning Crusade Classic, starting the expansion progression all over again. Warcraft I and II are being remastered To kick off today’s presentation, Blizzard announced it would be shadow-dropping remasters of both Warcraft I and II today. They’re remasters, not remakes, and will include fully remastered graphics as well as a number of quality of life features. Warcraft II specifically will include multiplayer, and all legacy custom maps will be compatible and playable. In addition, Blizzard is releasing a new patch for Warcraft III: Reforged that includes a graphics overhaul and various other quality of life changes that will hopefully improve the experience. And all three games will be available as part of a Battle Chest, with flexible pricing based on which games you already have in your library. Hearthstone is getting a crossover with…Starcraft?! Over in the tavern, we got a look at Hearthstone’s upcoming roadmap for 2025. And Hearthstone is starting the new year with a crossover with another Blizzard property: Starcraft. 2025 will start with a mini set themed around StarCraft, featuring themes and powers unique to all three StarCraft factions: Protoss, Zerg, and Terran. This will be followed by the first 2025 expansion, themed around the Emerald Dream, followed by a return to Un’Goro Crater for The Shrouded City expansion. Hearthstone will wrap up the year in a time-themed expansion called The Heroes of Time, featuring everyone’s favorite time traveler, Chromie. Warcraft Rumble is coming to PC Warcraft Rumble will soon introduce new split faction leaders in a new update. These leaders belong to two families simultaneously, instead of just one. Newly-added split faction leaders will include Orgrim Doomhammer, Malfurion Stormrage, and Anub’arak, while other characters such as Sylvanas will gain a second faction in addition to their current one. But most importantly, mobile game Warcraft Rumble is celebrating its first birthday by breaking free of the confines of our phones. Blizzard announced today that it’s coming to PC soon, with a beta launching on December 10th. Rebekah Valentine is a senior reporter for IGN.

Everyone has their favorite expansion in World of Warcraft. For some it's the first step into the unknown in The Burning Crusade, for others it's the grand frozen narrative of Wrath of the Lich King. There's probably even some who would point to Shadowlands as the series' high point, though they may not number in the thousands. Mists of Pandaria, however, is an odd one that dealt mostly with smaller stories in a land filled with talking pandas. If it's your favorite, however, then rejoice - as it's coming to World of Warcraft Classic soon. Read the rest of the story...

With the arrival of update 7.1, we have a new item called Pelu Pelplumes that you can exchange to receive exclusive items, such as the Punutiy mount.
