WoW Shadowlands Will Get A Season 4 Featuring Dungeons From Old Expansions

gamespot.com:

World of Warcraft Shadowlands may have already received its final content update and just kicked off Season 3, but in an atypical move, Blizzard has now confirmed that the game will receive an additional season later this year.

Season 4 will mix things up when it comes to WoW's normal seasonal format, according to a Blizzard post on the game's official forums. WoW seasons typically consist of a rotating roster of Mythic+ dungeons (oftentimes featuring a new dungeon and new seasonal affixes), a new raid, and a new season of competitive PvP. Since Shadowlands isn't set to receive any new content--the recent Eternity's End update was the last--Blizzard looks to be pulling from previously released content to keep things fresh instead.

For Mythic+, Blizzard will be featuring two dungeons from the game's last four expansions. Those dungeons will be the two wings of Shadowlands' Tazavesh, the two wings of Battle for Azeroth's Operation Mechagon, the two wings of Legion's Return to Karazhan, and two to-be-determined dungeons from Warlords of Draenor. Players can vote on which two Draenor dungeons should be included.

Raiding will also be different in Season 4. With no new raid to tackle, Blizzard is instead looking to make all three of Shadowlands' raid tiers relevant in Season 4 by increasing their difficulty, adding a new seasonal affix, and increasing the power level of loot dropped within each raid.

Blizzard is set to reveal WoW's next expansion on April
