Release Date

The World of Warcraft content train shows no sign of slowing down as we start to head into the end of the first set of patches for Midnight.

The latest World of Warcraft patch is now live: WoW patch 12.0.7 launched on June 16, 2026.

Diablo 4 Season 13 kicked off with the launch of the Lord of Hatred expansion, and we the player base have been eating this content up.

The fifth (and barring any dramatic changes, final) phase of Mists of Pandaria Classic will launch worldwide on June 2, 2026, once the weekly maintenance finishes, which is usually between 8am-9am pacific time.

Diablo 4's next expansion is Lord of Hatred, where we'll finally continue our (rather expected) fight against Mephisto, and the battle begins soon: Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred's release date is April 27 in North and South America, and April 28 in the rest of the world.

World of Warcraft's newest expansion, Midnight, just launched, but Blizzard is not content to bask in the success of what is, by all accounts, a well-received expansion launch, and the developers are already hard at work on patch 12.0.5.

Mists of Pandaria Classic's fourth phase, Escalation, is going live worldwide on March 31, 2026 once weekly maintenance concludes.

World of Warcraft's Midnight expansion kicked off off the second part of the Worldsoul Saga as baddie (in every sense of the word) Xal'atath invades Azeroth with an army of void creatures at her beck and call.

Mark your calendars, World of Warcraft players -- whether you've just joined the fun or you've been along for the ride since the beginning, the next chapter of Azeroth's story, Midnight, will have its Early Access go live at 3pm pacific (6pm eastern) on February 26.

WoW Classic's latest expansion, Mists of Pandaria Classic, launched in summer 2025 alongside a roadmap outlining a bit more detail for Mists of Pandaria Classic but it really only included the pre-patch and expansion launch, which felt a little slim for the last half of 2025.
