This new vision for WoW comes as the game nears its 20th anniversary and will create a game plan for WoW players as the title continues to evolve into its third decade. The three expansions in the Worldsoul Saga will be called The War Within, Midnight, and The Last Titan, and each of them will feature an interwoven narrative that defines the next era of WoW.\u00a0 Although we\u2019re still some time out from the launch of even the first of these three expansions, Blizzard still indulged the fans today and laid out a significant roadmap for what\u2019s next in the WoW universe.\u00a0 Why WoW is planning out its next three expansions at once As World of Warcraft enters its 20th year, the future of the game will be taking some massive strides. The biggest of those strides comes in the form of The Worldsoul Saga, which is more than just a single expansion; it\u2019s three expansions tied into one major chapter of the Warcraft franchise. The narrative of World of Warcraft will be connected across the next three expansions, so it makes sense for all three of them to be announced at the same time. In years past, it\u2019s been a bit of a guessing game going into upcoming expansions as fans have often wondered if they\u2019d be getting a continuous story upon the launch of a new expansion or if the new adventure would be completely unrelated to the previous one.\u00a0 With The Worldsoul Saga, though, it\u2019s pretty evident each of the expansions in the new trilogy will be related to the last one, and the first of those expansions, The War Within, will have ties to previous expansions, such as Battle for Azeroth and Dragonflight.\u00a0 All expansions in WoW: The Worldsoul Saga The Worldsoul Saga will feature three expansions: The War Within, Midnight, and The Last Titan. All three of these expansions will feature an interwoven narrative that connects across the three eras of the game. Unlike previous expansions, where storylines and features were fragmented and separated, this next chapter of WoW will be a seamless experience. World of Warcraft: The War Within (Coming 2024) An expansion that dives into Azeroth\u2019s underground regions in an attempt to save its heart. Players will adventure alongside heroes such as Anduin, Alleria, and others in an effort to finally deal with what\u2019s been plaguing Azeroth. Questions about Sargeras\u2019 sword will finally be answered.\u00a0 World of Warcraft: Midnight\u00a0 An expansion that will take players back to the \u201cold world\u201d of Quel\u2019thalas in a battle against the forces of the Void.\u00a0 World of Warcraft: The Last Titan\u00a0 An expansion that will see players uncover the secrets of the titans, as well as their long-term plans for the future of civilization. This expansion, while its setting remains mostly unknown, will feature a return to the continent of Northrend.\u00a0 When will the three expansions in The Worldsoul Saga be released?\u00a0 It\u2019s possible that these next three expansions will come out at a faster rate than expansions in years past. Since they\u2019ve all been announced at once, it\u2019s likely that Blizzard won\u2019t want to keep fans waiting, and that downtime between expansions could be slashed in the near future. For now, all we know is that the first expansion of the Worldsoul Saga, The War Within, will be released next year, 2024.\u00a0 It\u2019s very likely that, to prevent a clash with the launch of WoW Cataclysm Classic in the first half of the year, The War Within will go live in the second half of next year.\u00a0 Traditionally, WoW expansions have been released every other year dating as far back as Wrath of the Lich King in 2008. But with a clear and distinct plan for the next few years already set in stone, it\u2019s possible that the cadence of releasing an expansion every other year could be done away with starting with The War Within.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WoW_11_BlizzCon_RevealPK_CinematicStills_001.jpeg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1018925"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1018925"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1018925\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1018952,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1018925\/revisions\/1018952"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1018930"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1018925"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1018925"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1018925"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1018925"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1018925"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1018925"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1018925"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
