We may have finally recovered from BlizzCon.

It’s Friday! Can you believe it was just BlizzCon last weekend? Honestly, even as someone who was a somewhat disinterested watcher going into the whole thing, it was hard not to get more than a little excited about some of the stuff that we’ve all discussed endlessly all week around here. Now it’s a new weekend, and I have to shift into a tabletop headspace: I have four games scheduled for this weekend. Pray for my poor brain cells, they’re gonna get worn out by Sunday night.

This is the Queue, our daily question and answer question column where the definition of “question” can get pretty broad, but so can the definition of “answer.” Let’s get into it.

BlizzCon just wrapped, and so there is so much to talk about we couldn't pack it all into an hour.

One of the least advertised things on the BlizzCon 2026 map was a small area in the World of Warcraft section labeled "Last Call at the Arcantina".

I’m not sure, but after playing World of Warcraft for over 20 years, I’m willing to give it a chance. And we’ll know how things play out very soon, because the beta is scheduled to go live at NQT.

But while we wait (seconds) for that to happen or (hours) for the servers to be stable, let’s get to the questions. This is the Queue, our daily Q&A column.

World of Warcraft: Forever is bringing new and expanded content and gameplay to Classic Azeroth when it launches worldwide on November 4, 2026 as part of your regular World of Warcraft subscription, no additional purchase necessary!

Some days in the Wasteland, you accidentally stumble into a robot-operated dinosaur cloning facility, and then you have to make an ethical judgment on what to do with the lives of intelligent (and very polite) cloned dinosaurs and deathclaws.

As you may have deduced by my recent run of BlizzCon coverage, last weekend was my first time attending the event in person.

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.
