While far from the heavy-hitting instanced dungeons that make up the end-game of many an MMORPG, World of Warcraft is set to soon offer player housing functionality for all players in-game, limited not be available parcels on a server, but player demand. During their latest deepdive livestream for World of Warcraft: Midnight early this morning, Blizzard Entertainment shared that pre-orderers of the Midnight expansion will be able to access an early build of the housing system from 3 December 2025. This will mean that those with periods of leave from work (or school holidays) can potentially look forward to some house building during the season.
The full broadcast VOD is available on the Warcraft YouTube channel (or above), offering a closer look at how Midnight’s headline systems aim to evolve World of Warcraft.
Immediately after the presentation, Senior Game Director Ion Hazzikostas, Associate Game Director Paul Kubit and Design Director Maria Hamilton joined Community Manager Randy Jordan for a live Q&A, which is also available to watch back below.
For collectors, Blizzard has opened pre orders for the Midnight physical Collector’s Edition. The package includes an art book, pin, a replica of the Dark Heart, and a digital download code for the Epic Edition with its in game bonuses. Australian and New Zealand retail options include Amazon AU, EB Games in Australia and New Zealand, JB Hi Fi in both countries, The Gamesmen in Australia and Mighty Ape in New Zealand.
