Midnight

Tuesday brings the Midnight pre-patch and a number of systems changes, from transmog to UI to class overhauls.

In a recent round table interview with PC Gamer, Principal designer and World of Warcraft Player Housing lead Jesse Kurlancheek dropped a comment that sent our minds racing: "guild halls may go live relatively quickly." Record scratch.

Get ready to roll those Void Elf Demon Hunters, because the Midnight pre-patch launches on January 20, 2026, immediately after Legion Remix ends.

The Midnight pre-patch is almost upon us, and with it will come the long discussed "addon apocalypse," where changes to the back end have either made it impossible to maintain certain addons, or made the task of updating them too daunting for some developers to want to continue.

It won't be long until the Midnight pre-patch is upon us, bringing with it a whole slew of changes to the game -- the overhaul to transmog, Void Elf Demon Hunters, and major revamps to every spec except Frost Death Knight (who already got their turn).

If you've been frustrated by the slow pace of gathering lumber in The War Within in order to craft player housing decor with your professions, then good news -- new achievements have been added to the Midnight beta that allow for mounted lumberjacking.

While we are currently in Early Access for the World of Warcraft Player Housing feature, there are still a number of aspects that won't be available until the Midnight expansion launch, including some exterior options.

Soon, it will be time for World of Warcraft's Midnight expansion to launch, kicking 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.

Let's say you've gotten settled into your nice new house in World of Warcraft.

The World of Warcraft community has been all about Player Housing for the last few months.
