We did the math.
Today marks the launch of World of Warcraft patch 10.2.6 and Plunderstorm, Blizzard's new battle royale PvP experiment. Based on my interviews with Blizzard representatives and WoW's past update cycles, I've figured out when the MMO's next expansion will probably release., perhaps around August 20.
The new season will launch what is basically a victory lap for Dragonflight dungeons and raids: All eight of the original Dragonflight dungeons will return for Mythic Plus difficulty, and all of the expansion's three raids will return in rotation in a system very similar to Shadowlands' Fated raids system.Sign up to get the best content of the week, and great gaming deals, as picked by the editors.
The schedule would repeat until the 11.0 pre-patch launch event for The War Within. If the same schedule applied as in the run-up to Dragonflight, that would put the 11.0 patch on July 2. If that's the case, the company would have a few choices: launch season 4 a week later; don't complete one of the rotations fully ; remove one of the rotations entirely or add one; or decouple the"all raids are Fated" week from the start of the pre-patch.
