Developer Blizzard Entertainment had been on hand during the Gamescom 2025 with the official reveal of the 11th expansion, World of Warcraft: Midnight.
In Midnight, the second chapter of the Worldsoul Saga, shadows gather as Xal’atath sets her gaze on the Blood Elf capital, Silvermoon, and the Sunwell hidden nearby. The forces of darkness seek to harness its power and turn it against the world – or destroy the font if they fail to do so.
Prepare to return to the legendary kingdom of Quel’thalas and adventure through the new and reimagined zones in search of new allies in the battle against the Harbinger. The updated Eversong Woods and Zul’aman will allow you to immerse in familiar but new settings. On the other hand, the new zone of Harandar will give you a chance to experience something completely new: a bioluminescent primordial jungle sitting at the confluence of the world trees’ great roots.
However, it won’t really be a Void expansion without a distant world ravaged by this dark force, where predation reigns supreme and threats lurk within every shadow of the hostile landscape. You will need to prepare yourself accordingly before setting out to explore the Voidstorm.
Pre-purchase World of Warcraft: Midnight and unlock benefits to aid you in your adventures! All editions include an Enhanced Level 80 Character Boost, Housing Early Access, and the critically-acclaimed The War Within expansion. In addition, the Epic Edition offers Beta Access and Early Access to Midnight. All in-game items are available immediately unless otherwise noted.
