Summary
World of Warcraft: Forever goes live globally at 23:00 UTC on November 4, opening a permanent experience set between Warcraft III Reforged: Forsaken Kingdom and Molten Core.
More than 1,000 new quests span the level 1-60 journey across reimagined Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor, including new or expanded zones such as Mount Hyjal, Shen'dralas, Riverglades and Zephras Isle.
The launch also adds the Skyborne as a new playable race, new class combinations such as Orc Mages and Undead Paladins, and a ruleset-based world selection covering Normal, PvP, Roleplay and Roleplay PvP.
New systems aim to modernize the classic-style experience, including visual presets, a two-name character structure, shared camping, and the account-wide Legacy progression system; a Hardcore ruleset is planned after launch.
Endgame content extends beyond release, with nine new five-player dungeons available during leveling and three level-60 raids—Barrow Deeps, Hyjal Summit and Onyxia's Lair—scheduled for December 9.
