No living soul on Azeroth truly knows what awaits in the world

Originally scheduled for release in late October, Shadowlands
was delayed to allow more time for fine-tuning and polish based on
feedback from the ongoing beta test, helping ensure players'
journey into Azeroth's afterlife will be an epic experience at
launch.
The eighth World of Warcraft expansion sends players on a
journey into the Shadowlands, a realm of infinite afterlives where
mortal souls go to find new purpose—or suffer eternal torment at
the mercy of the Jailer in his Tower of the Damned. As players
explore this otherworldly frontier, they’ll discover the fates of
Warcraft legends, forge a bond with one of four Covenants who rule
over the Shadowlands’ disparate domains, and ultimately confront a
threat shrouded in darkness with designs to unmake the cosmos.
Blizzard today also announced dates for multiple upcoming
Shadowlands-related content releases:
- The Scourge Invade Azeroth November 10 – With the Helm
of Domination torn apart and the sky over Icecrown shattered, the
undead Scourge make a resurgence—and Azeroth’s heroes must confront
this Death-born threat before it consumes the mortal world of
Azeroth. This Shadowlands pre-expansion event goes live starting
November 10.
- The Gates of Castle Nathria Open December 8 – Castle
Nathria, the first epic 10-boss raid of Shadowlands, will be
available starting December 8. The opening of the raid also signals
the start of Shadowlands Raid, Mythic Dungeon, and PvP Season
1.
