Get back in the fight as you defend Azeroth from the shadows below. Journey through never-before-seen subterranean worlds filled with hidden wonders and lurking perils, down to the dark depths of the nerubian empire, where the malicious Harbinger of the Void is gathering arachnid forces to bring Azeroth to its knees.
Please join us for a special test on the War Within Beta realms tomorrow, Thursday, August 15 at 1:30 p.m. PDT (4:30 p.m. EDT, 22:30 CEST).
At that time, only a special realm named "Launch Test" will be available for testing.
Please log into the Launch Test realm and copy your live character or use a level 70 character template and then head to Dalaran. At 2:00 p.m. PDT (5:00 p.m. EDT, 23:00 CEST), we'll simulate a full expansion launch. Testers should receive the quest to start the expansion intro experience at that time.
Thereafter, we’ll play through the expansion intro and all the way into the first zone, the Isle of Dorn. We'll aim to end the test at around 3:30 p.m. PDT (6:30 p.m. EDT, 00:30 CEST) and we’ll return other test realms to service thereafter.
Thank you and we’ll see you in Dalaran!
World of Warcraft’s next expansion—The War Within—will launch in the Americas, Europe, Taiwan, Korea, and Australia/New Zealand at the same time globally. Wherever you live and whatever faction you represent, you can be part of one globally unified front as the way into the Khaz Algar opens.
Check the details below for the exact time you can begin logging in to explore all that this new expansion has to offer.

The War Within will go live globally on August 26 at 3:00 p.m. PDT. Players who pre-purchase the Epic Edition can also get bonus content—Gryphon Rider Sets and Squally’s Siblings.
