Paul Kubit, Associate Game Director on World of Warcraft, showed a new housing mode called the Showcase at the World of Warcraft: Midnight What’s Next panel at BlizzCon 2026. It arrives with patch 12.2 Eclipse.
“You log into the game, you can open up your housing dashboard and check out the showcase,” Kubit said. “This will be a bunch of houses that other players have submitted for you to check out.” The list can be a general collection or a themed event. The slide showed a Housing Showcase window with “Current Showcase: Spring into Spring” and 24 days remaining, with entries such as Zo’s Springtime Rabbit Cafe, Noblegarden Hop Hop Hop Puzzle and Spring Growth Castle, each with a heart count above 1,900, and a Submit to Showcase button.
You visit houses and give a heart to the ones you like. Submitting your own house saves it as a snapshot at that moment, so you can keep moving things around at home without changing the entry. “If you do really well in any showcase event, you can earn some cool thematic decor,” Kubit said.
You can also take a snapshot at any time and generate a visitor code to share with friends or a community. No date beyond the Eclipse window was given.
