New Dungeons, Raids & Battlegrounds

Forever adds group destinations inside familiar parts of Azeroth. The announced lineup connects new spaces with the world around them rather than moving every adventure to a distant expansion continent.

Nine new dungeon destinations

Destination	Connection described by Blizzard
Hall of Thanes	Beneath Ironforge
Ruins of Lordaeron	A Forsaken reclamation story
Excavation above Whelgar’s Excavation	A new investigation near a familiar dig site
City of Dalaran	Magical trouble in the city
Blackmaw Hold	Corruption in its depths
Drowned City	Naga and pirates
Krol’dok Stronghold	Part of the announced new dungeon lineup
Alcaz Prison	Part of the announced new dungeon lineup
Shaper’s Terrace	Titan mysteries in Un’Goro

Raids

Hyjal Summit is planned for 20 players. Barrow Deeps is a maximum-level 10-player challenge. Both are part of the announced group-content direction, alongside new tier sets and a legendary reward.

The official roadmap places new raid unlocks on December 9, 2026, after the November launch. Use the current official schedule when organizing a group around an unlock date.

Darkspear Islands

The announced battleground supports 15 players per side and combines strategic control points with Arathi Basin-style flag captures and defense. It is located off the coast of Kalimdor.

Finding a group

Does Forever offer an automatic queue or only manual LFG? Read the WoW Forever Dungeon Finder guide for the distinction between group discovery, matchmaking and travel.

Prepare with your group

Choose a compatible ruleset and faction, discuss your roles, and plan your control tools. Blizzard’s combat direction retains threat and tactical pulls, making preparation useful beyond a simple equipment check.

Advanced profession camping objects are also connected to dungeon-boss blueprints. Read about crafting and camping before planning profession goals around your dungeon runs.
