Earfly Access

Xal'atath and her void-born Devouring Host begin their siege upon the world, starting with the goal of snuffing out the Light's most potent monument on Azeroth: the Sunwell. As part of today's Early Access, Midnight Epic Edition owners (which includes physical collector's edition owners) get four days to experience this second chapter of the Worldsoul Saga ahead of global launch on March 2. While most endgame systems will come online after the global launch, players will be able to journey through the new and reimagined zones on their way to the new level cap of 90. The celebration for Midnight's launch spans across Blizzard as players can earn new rewards in other games for jumping in and completing the Midnight introduction questline and earning the "Echoes of Midnight" achievement. These rewards include:

  • Overwatch: Devourer Genji skin
  • Heroes of the Storm: Crimson War Bear mount

The second chapter of The Worldsoul Saga begins.

Experience the reimagined zones of Eversong Woods and Zul'aman where you'll be immersed in familiar but new settings. Journey to Harandar the bioluminescent primordial jungle sitting at the confluence of the world trees' great roots, then discover a distant world ravaged by the void where predation reigns supreme and threats lurk within every shadow of the hostile landscape.
