WoW Forever New Zones & Regions Overview

Which new zones are confirmed for WoW Forever?

Blizzard has highlighted four major regions in its first Forever reveal: Zephras Isle, Riverglades, Mount Hyjal and Shen’dralas. They are part of a broader effort to deepen the original continents rather than send players to a separate expansion landmass.

Read the individual pages for Zephras Isle, Riverglades and Mount Hyjal, or jump to the Shen’dralas guide.

How much new questing content is planned?

Blizzard says Forever contains more than 1,000 new quests across the level 1–60 journey. That number matters because it shows the new content is not restricted to max level.

The world is intended to keep leveling relevant, with new stories and destinations appearing across many level bands. See the level-60 design guide for why this is central to Forever’s structure.

Is the old world being replaced?

No. Forever keeps Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor as the core setting. The philosophy is to look deeper into original Azeroth: unfinished roads, distant silhouettes, inaccessible spaces, forgotten ruins and regions that can now support new stories.

Some places are entirely new, while others are reimagined versions of familiar Warcraft locations.

Will this page include quest chains and maps?

Yes. As each region becomes available during beta, its page will expand with verified:

• level ranges and entry points;
• quest hubs and quest-chain order;
• flight paths and travel routes;
• rare enemies and elites;
• dungeon or raid connections;
• profession resources;
• screenshots and map references.

Until each area is directly testable, this page sticks to Blizzard-confirmed geography instead of filling gaps with speculation.
