Cataclysm Classic Phases

Elemental Rune Dungeons go live on October 29, 2024 as part of the staggered rollout for Cataclysm Classic Phase 3.

Elemental Rune Dungeons finally arrive on October 29, 2024 in the Rage of the Firelands content drop of Cataclysm Classic's staggered Phase 3 release.

Cataclysm Classic Phase 2 is officially live!

Cataclysm Classic Phase 4 is scheduled to arrive in January 2025, and while Blizzard has not yet confirmed a date, we estimate the phase will begin Tuesday January 7, 2025 with the raid content launching Thursday January 9, 2025.

In a twist, part of Cataclysm Classic Phase 3 launched early, on September 17, 2024 while the rest of the phase's launch happens over time on October 29 and November 7.  Originally, Phase 3 was scheduled to arrive in October 2024 and we haven't seen a Classic phase release earlier than intended before, so a part of the phase being moved up is a bit surprising.

World of Warcraft Classic latest expansion, Cataclysm Classic, launched on May 20, followed shortly by the release of the expansion's first phase a week later.

Cataclysm Classic's first planned phase officially kicked off May 28 and is now in full swing with the launch of three raid dungeons!
