Blizzard Unveils New Housing System in WoW

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, irrespective of complex prerequisites, exorbitant costs, or lotteries. Crucially, homes won't be forfeited due to lapsed subscriptions. This substantial housing feature is scheduled for full implementation with the Midnight expansion.

Initially, players can select a plot in one of two designated zones: Alliance players in a region blending Elwynn Forest with elements from Westfall and Duskwood; Horde players in an area combining Durotar with aspects of Azshara and the Durotar coastline.

Each zone is segmented into districts, each accommodating approximately 50 homes. Players can opt for open-area plots or establish private communities with friends and guild members. A wide array of customization options is promised, with most obtainable in-game, while select items will be available via the in-game shop.

Blizzard underscores the housing system's foundation on three core principles: extensive customization, robust social interaction, and enduring longevity. Further details regarding the housing system are promised in the future, and player feedback is currently being solicited.
