The first build for the Dragonflight expansion is now live on the Public Test Realm of World of Warcraft. This marks a major milestone on the path towards the release of Dragonflight, and means more World of Warcraft players can experience elements of the coming expansion and provide feedback to improve them.
The Public Test Realm is a special client all active World of Warcraft players can access to playtest content still in development by Blizzard, be it patches or expansions. This PTR testing is separate from the Dragonflight beta, which is still only open to select individuals invited by World of Warcraft.
