WoW Classic

The Burning Crusade Classic anniversary realms are finally getting the next phase of content on October 22, 2026 at 3pm pacific (6pm eastern).

Part of the WoW Classic leveling experience is weapons training, and this carries over into World of Warcraft: Forever.

Good news everyone!

It's another short and sweet maintenance day for World of Warcraft, with just one hour of downtime scheduled for all realms.

It's been a while since we've had such a short WoW maintenance, but today's World of Warcraft downtime is as quick as it gets with just an hour of maintenance scheduled for all realms.

Throughout BlizzCon 2026, we received plenty of information and news about the huge reveal of World of Warcraft: Forever, the roadmap for the rest World of Warcraft: Midnight, and even teasers for The Last Titan and Wrath of the Lich King Remix.

With the release of World of Warcraft: Forever we will see a new race called the Skyborne, an elven race who were descended from Highborne elven exiles who made a pact with the Skywall wind elementals generations ago.

This week's World of Warcraft maintenance is an exact match to last week's maintenance: all WoW Classic servers are scheduled to be offline for one hour, while Midnight servers are scheduled to be offline for two hours.

While discussing server systems infrastructure during the World of Warcraft: Forever Deep Dive panel, Blizzard casually dropped a bombshell: there won't be any realms.

World of Warcraft: Forever is the newest WoW Classic variant, and it's launching on November 4, 2026.
