Utgivningsdatum för World of Warcraft: Midnight Beta bekräftat

Blizzard has officially confirmed that the closed beta for World of Warcraft: Midnight will begin on November 11, 2025 — just days after the fifth phase of alpha testing concluded. Players who signed up for beta access will receive periodic invitations, but those who pre-order the Midnight Epic Edition can skip the queue and gain instant entry into the closed beta.

🌌 A New Chapter in the Worldsoul Saga

Midnight marks the 11th major expansion in the World of Warcraft series and serves as the second installment in the ongoing Worldsoul Saga storyline. This time, players will return to Quel’thalas, where the Light and Void are locked in a massive conflict threatening to reshape Azeroth.

The update introduces class and specialization adjustments while also reducing API access for player-made addons — a move that has stirred controversy among the community. Addon developers behind tools like ElvUI and WeakAuras have paused their work on Midnight due to these restrictions, though both addons will continue functioning in Mists of Pandaria Classic.

When Does the Midnight Beta Go Live?

• 📅 Date: Tuesday, November 11, 2025
• ⏱️ Access: Available via opt-in through Battle.net or immediate access for Epic Edition pre-orders.

Blizzard has noted that players might experience a short delay of up to 30 minutes when the servers open. To ensure a smooth start, participants should make sure their Battle.net app and graphics drivers are fully updated before launch.

🧭 What’s Included in the Beta?

During the first week, testers will be able to:

• Explore Quel’thalas and Zul’Aman zones.
• Try out the Devourer Demon Hunter specialization.
• Play as the new Haranir allied race, a mysterious bat-like species.
• Experiment with the new Prey system and updated Talent trees.

In the second and third weeks, Blizzard will unlock the expansion’s first three raids. However, the final bosses of the Voidspire and March on Quel’Danas raids will be locked to avoid major story spoilers.

Additionally, player housing exteriors themed after night elves and blood elves will become available after week one, giving players a first look at the game’s expanded customization options.

With Midnight’s beta on the horizon and The War Within’s final patch still fresh, the final months of 2025 promise to be a thrilling time for World of Warcraft fans eager to explore the next epic chapter of Azeroth’s saga.
