Overview

  • Blizzard detailed that The Riftstorm and The Dream Spiral open together in week two on normal and heroic, with mythic for both in week three and the story-critical March on Quel'Danas arriving in week four or five.
  • All three raids belong to the same tier but differ in difficulty, with The Riftstorm serving as the primary six-boss raid, The Dream Spiral slotted between it and the most challenging March on Quel'Danas.
  • Midnight continues the Void-focused storyline and revisits an updated Quel'Thalas while adding the new zones Zul'Aman and Harandar.
  • The expansion introduces player housing, the Haranir as an allied race, and a new Demon Hunter specialization called Devourer.
  • Blizzard opened tiered preorders priced around €50–€90, with the Epic Edition including three days of early access, beta access, and 30 days of game time, and developers reassured Horde and Orc fans about future spotlight moments for Thrall as Chris Metzen returns to voice and write the character.
