After a hefty alpha period showcasing some tasty morsels of World Of Warcraft: Midnight, the actual beta test for the expansion has launched officially.
Deploying in phases, players will get to experience the full breadth of new shadow-soaked content that awaits us all in 2026.
Phase 1 is obviously the first outing that is available today, which includes:
- Expansion Introduction
- Leveling 81-90
- All Zones
- Silvermoon City Hub
- New Allied Race: Haranir
- Devourer Demon Hunter Specialization – And Void Elf Demon Hunters!
- Arator’s Journey
- New Dungeons
- New Delves
- The Prey system
- The Arcantina
- New Activities
- Journeys
- Apex talents.
- Profession Updates and New Recipes
- Slayer’s Rise World PvP
- Training Grounds
- Housing
- Endeavors
- New Player and Returning Player Experiences
- User Interface Updates
That’s an enormous amount of stuff to get stuck in to, with following weeks shuffling you on to even bigger stuff – including limited raid testing, an updated transmog system (!!!) and the ability to try out Mythic+ dungeons.
Blizzard has actually shared a codex of details for further Midnight information, via their Midnight Expansion Information Wrapped Up page, because this is an immense bit of testing going on.
Sign-ups for the Midnight beta test are open – so if you are interested, make sure to mosey on over and throw your name in. Additionally, players who purchase or who upgrade to the Epic Edition of Midnight during the course of the beta, will also gain immediate access.
Did you dip your feet into the fantastic alpha experience? Are you rearing to chase shadows in the beta instead? Tell us all about it in the comments or on social media.
