The War Within patch 11.1.7 release date is June 17, 2025 — here’s the content to expect

World of Warcraft has maintained a solid content cadence ever since the start of Dragonflight and the 2025 roadmap for The War Within demonstrates there’s no suggestion it’ll stop any time soon. The next patch revealed in the roadmap is patch 11.1.7, and The War Within patch 11.1.7 release date is June 17, 2025. 

Patch release consistency has improved over the past year so a default expectation of seven to eight weeks between patches seems like a safe bet. The Dastardly Duos event will already be running (starts on June 3), and it makes sense that 11.1.7 will be arriving after that — if 11.1.7 was expected to release the same week as the Dastardly Duos or earlier they would not have included it in 11.1.5.

What’s in patch 11.1.7?

New quests and content are a given for any new patch, and patch 11.1.7 is no exception. In addition to the Arathi Highlands story campaign, we’ll also see a new series of Lorewalking quests that are sure to pique the interest of any Loremaster. We hope you like Arthas content, because here’s more of it! The return of Turbulent Timeways will be welcomed by players that love to timewalk, with Week One bringing us back to Battle for Azeroth. The Infinite Pirate Dragon mount — properly called the Chrono Corsair — is up for grabs from this latest Timewalking, so we suggest you jump in ASAP. Plus, the Greedy Emissary event returns July 1, allowing players to kill Diablo-style Treasure Goblins in order to get some tier 2 transmogs.

But it’s not all nostalgic stuff from days of yore. Overcharged Delves add an affix to certain delves, and the rewards will be new gear, an extra currency, and a mech suit mount. Here’s hoping you’re up to the challenge (because we’re pretty sure Brann will not be much help). Plus, there are a number of improvements and additions to the UI that help with the accessibility of playing certain classes out of the box.
