World of Warcraft's highly anticipated housing system is slated for a 2025 release, with Blizzard unveiling initial details. The developers assure players that homes will be accessible to everyone, regardless of subscription status, and will not involve complicated acquisition processes, exorbitant costs, or lotteries. This feature is set to debut with the Midnight expansion.
Initially, players can select a plot in one of two regions: Alliance players in Elwynn Forest (incorporating elements from Westfall and Duskwood), and Horde players in Durotar (featuring aspects of Azshara and the Durotar coastline).
Each zone will be subdivided into districts, each accommodating approximately 50 homes. Players can opt for individual plots or establish private communities with friends and guild members. A vast array of customization choices will be offered, with most items obtainable in-game, and some available through the in-game shop.
Blizzard highlights three core tenets of the housing system: extensive customization, robust social interaction, and enduring appeal. Further details are promised in the future, and player feedback is actively solicited.
