BlizzCon 2026 has begun! We\u2019ll be updating right here throughout the weekend with the latest, announcements, reveals and updates from the convention.
The next major content update for Midnight, Eclipse, brings players face-to-face with Xal\u2019atath as she hovers just within reach of her ultimate objective: the Worldsoul. With Azeroth\u2019s fate hanging in the balance, players will need to confront her directly and stop her from claiming victory. The events of Eclipse will unfold in the worldcore, setting the stage for a revelation and conflict that will carry the Worldsoul Saga toward its final chapter in The Last Titan.
The Last Titan<\/em> is more than a return to Northrend\u2014it\u2019s a reflection on generations of courage, sacrifice, and unforgettable deeds across Azeroth. From the Shifting Sands of Ahn\u2019Qiraj to the Frozen Throne, the Worldbreaker, the Burning Legion, and even the realms beyond life and death, heroes have fought time and again to defend our home. As Azeroth calls on us one last time, this next chapter will offer a glimpse at the challenges waiting ahead when more is revealed early next year, after the events of Midnight: Eclipse<\/em>.
For the first time in more than two decades, a new campaign has arrived in Warcraft III: Reforged<\/em>. Forsaken Kingdom<\/em> follows the fall of Lordaeron and its transformation into becoming the Undercity, introducing new faces alongside familiar figures, like Sylvanas, as players discover what it truly means to be Forsaken. Warcraft III: Reforged\u2014Forsaken Kingdom<\/em> is live now and playable on the show floor at BlizzCon.
Go deeper into the design at 3:30 p.m. PDT in the Warcraft III Reforged: Forsaken Kingdom \u2013Deep Dive panel where the team will take you further into what\u2019s in store.
Before there was a world, there was war. Return to the conflicts that helped forge Azeroth\u2019s future with Warcraft III Reforged: Forsaken Kingdom<\/em>, a new campaign for Warcraft III: Reforged<\/em> that begins in the ruins of Lordaeron and leads into the first days of World of Warcraft<\/em>.
Step into the untold story of the Forsaken as Lordaeron\u2019s fallen wrest free of the Scourge and fight for a future beneath the shattered surface of their former kingdom. Led by heroes such as Sylvanas Windrunner, the newly risen Forsaken face enemies familiar and new, establish a foothold in the Undercity, and make choices that will echo into the era of World of Warcraft: Forever<\/em>.
