Are you ready to save the Sunwell from the Voidstorm?
World of Warcraft: Midnight is looking to be one of World of Warcraft’s more significant expansions in recent years.
In addition to the expected slew of new Dungeons, Raids, and Delves, we’ll be getting a new outdoor monster-hunting activity called Prey, a new playable Allied Race called the Haranir, a new DPS specialization for the Demon Hunter class, and more.
The biggest gameplay addition World of Warcraft: Midnight will bring is Player Housing, a feature players have been begging for since World of Warcraft’s debut in 2004. With Player Housing, players will be able to create a virtual home and decorate it with furniture and trophies.
If any of these features sound enticing to play, then mark down your calendars with the release times we’ve rounded up so you don’t miss out on World of Warcraft: Midnight’s launch on February 26, 2026, 3:00 pm PST (early access) and March 2, 2026, 3:00 pm PST (globally) for PC.
