"As datamined by Wowhead, the Midnight pre-patch, which will introduce class changes and new systems (though not the actual new zones, dungeons, or other expansion content) looks to be coming on or around January 27, 2026. The datamined splash screen for the patch points out Neighborhoods, the void-focused Devourer Demon Hunter specialization, and a new pre-patch event called Twilight Ascension as new additions."
"While players who preorder Midnight will be able to buy and start decorating their homes with the arrival of WoW's 11.2.7 patch, expected in early December, it won't be until the arrival of Neighborhoods that the game's long-awaited player-housing system is fully complete. Neighborhoods allow players to participate in special community events and complete challenges that will unlock new decorations and change the appearance of neighborhoods themselves."
Datamined information points to the Midnight pre-patch arriving on or around January 27, 2026, adding Neighborhoods, the Devourer Demon Hunter specialization, and a Twilight Ascension pre-patch event. The pre-patch date suggests the full Midnight expansion will launch about three to four weeks later, in February 2026. Players who preorder Midnight can begin decorating homes with the 11.2.7 patch expected in early December, but Neighborhoods complete the player-housing system by enabling community events, challenges, decoration unlocks, and changing neighborhood appearances. The Twilight Ascension event will pit players against Twilight Hammer cultists and offer catch-up gear, while the pre-patch also marks the end of combat add-ons.
