Midnight quietly reshapes WoW's core for a modern Azeroth
Blizzard’s Midnight expansion acts as a quiet core rewrite for World of Warcraft, adding evergreen features like housing and a built-in Prey system, pruning classes for clearer, more readable endgame, and remaking key zones to modernize Azeroth for 2026; the goal is a more approachable, long-lasting WoW experience that blends new systems with an updated open world and a storytelling-driven mid-chapter arc in the Worldsoul Saga.
