Paul Kubit closed the World of Warcraft: Midnight What’s Next panel at BlizzCon 2026 with a full 2026 to 2027 roadmap slide for Midnight, laid out by season. “There you have it, the full roadmap revealed,” he said.
Patch 12.1.5 sits in autumn 2026 with Labyrinths, the Kith’ix campaign and mini raid, Aqir Invasions, Hallow’s End updates and reputation warbandification. Patch 12.1.7 is named Echoes of the Worldcore and lands between autumn and winter with Talebound, story and quests, Lorewalking: Thrall, Turbulent Timeways and Winter Veil updates.
Patch 12.2 Eclipse is in winter: story and quests, the Mantle Vault zone, Thraegar’s Stand dungeon, the Gearhold lair, new Delves, the Worldcore raid, the legendary caster blade, Forsaken, Night Elf and Troll paladins, housing updates and Season 3. An Expansion Reveal box for World of Warcraft: The Last Titan sits between winter and spring.
Patch 12.2.5 is in spring 2027 with a world event called Soulstorms, story and quests and transmog updates. Patch 12.2.7 is in summer with story and quests, a Midnight recap, Lorewalking updates, professions updates and Midsummer updates. Kubit noted 12.2.7 “sits in that icy blue area” of the slide before the panel moved on.
The slide’s footer says more news beyond the roadmap is to be shared, and that content and timing are subject to change. No specific dates were given for any patch.
