World of Warcraft Classic Reveals Season of Discovery Phase 7

Key Takeaways

  • Phase 7, the final phase of Season of Discovery for World of Warcraft Classic, has no release date yet but is likely coming in early 2025.
  • Players can expect the Naxxramas raid, a Scarlet Crusade instance, and a Deadwind Pass adventure.
  • WoW will reveal plans for Season of Discovery characters post-Phase 7 in the near future.

As an old-timer World of Warcraft player with years of raiding and grinding under my belt, I can’t help but feel both excited and nostalgic about the latest announcement for Phase 7 of Season of Discovery in World of Warcraft Classic. The prospect of finally tackling Naxxramas and exploring new instances such as those themed around the Scarlet Crusade and Deadwind Pass has me itching to dust off my old character sheets.

In simpler terms, the much-anticipated Phase 7 for the Season of Discovery in the World of Warcraft Classic game has been announced. However, an exact launch date for the final phase of this experiment hasn’t been set yet, but players can look forward to it between late winter and early spring of 2025.

The sixth phase of the Season of Discovery is approaching in World of Warcraft Classic. This content update, featuring the renowned Ahn’Qiraj raids, is set to launch on November 21st. However, enthusiasts can already kick off the Scepter of the Shifting Sands quest, allowing them to strike the Scarab Gong and collect a Black Qiraji Battle Tank as a reward.

Despite World of Warcraft Classic’s Season of Discovery update not being released yet, players have already caught a sneak peek of what lies ahead. In the latest Warcraft Direct, Season of Discovery unveiled Phase 7, the final update for the World of Warcraft Classic Realms. Notably, this phase will mark the long-awaited opening of Naxxramas, the last raid in Vanilla WoW. However, developers also hinted at fresh, original instanced content exclusive to Season of Discovery, such as encounters with the Scarlet Crusade, and an adventure in Deadwind Pass. These could potentially be the epic battles that World of Warcraft Classic had previously hinted at.

WoW Classic Season of Discovery Phase 7 Details

  • The final phase of Season of Discovery
  • Arriving late winter/early spring 2025
  • Naxxramas raid
  • New Scarlet Crusade-themed instance
  • Adventure in Deadwind Pass, potentially involving a Karazhan Crypts dungeon

The release date for the upcoming update on WoW Classic is still undetermined, however, the 2025 roadmap suggests it could be towards the end of winter or beginning of spring. Based on the pace of past Seasons of Discovery phases, it’s likely that World of Warcraft will roll out Phase 7 by as early as the end of January, or no later than March.

A significant number of fans who follow Season of Discovery have been expressing concern over what lies ahead once Phase 7 comes to a close. Although World of Warcraft has guaranteed that Season of Discovery characters won’t be deleted or moved onto normal Classic Era servers, they have promised to reveal their plans for these characters soon. If players aren’t informed before the launch of Phase 7 next year, they can expect to find out what will happen to their characters shortly thereafter.

Moving forward from the Season of Discovery, there’s plenty more to look forward to with World of Warcraft Classic at the Warcraft Direct. For those playing on Progression Realms, the final patch for Cataclysm Classic, Hour of Twilight, is set for next year, though it will be slightly delayed from its original schedule. Excitingly, World of Warcraft Classic also announced that Mists of Pandaria will arrive next summer. Furthermore, new Classic progression realms for World of Warcraft are launching on November 21 to celebrate the game’s 20th anniversary. These realms will take players through Vanilla and into Burning Crusade Classic once more. No matter your preferred classic WoW experience, it seems there will be numerous opportunities for fans to relish in the retro servers as we move towards 2025.
