Midnight

Expansion • Coming March 2, 2026

World of Warcraft: Midnight is the second chapter of the Worldsoul Saga, launching March 2, 2026. Return to Quel'Thalas where the forces of the Void have invaded Azeroth. Unite the scattered elven tribes and fight alongside the forces of Light to banish the Shadow forever. Key Features: • Player Housing - Obtain and customize personal spaces in Azeroth using items from gameplay, professions, and achievements • New Playable Race - Unlock the Haranir, an allied race available after completing story quests in Harandar • Prey System - Track powerful targets across Midnight zones in Normal, Hard, and Nightmare difficulties • Return to Quel'Thalas - Explore the homeland of the Blood Elves and High Elves in four new zones --- Midnight marks the dramatic return to one of Azeroth's most iconic locations. For the first time since the original Burning Crusade, players will fully explore Quel'Thalas and witness the reunification of the elven people. The expansion weaves together threads from decades of Warcraft lore, bringing High Elves, Blood Elves, Void Elves, and the mysterious Haranir together against the encroaching darkness. As part of the three-expansion Worldsoul Saga announced at BlizzCon, Midnight continues the story begun in The War Within and sets the stage for the epic conclusion in The Last Titan. With the introduction of player housing—one of the most requested features in WoW history—alongside new combat systems and a level cap increase, Midnight represents a major evolution for World of Warcraft.
