Solo queue.

For a long time now, those two words have been a rallying cry for parts of the PvP community whose appetite for World of Warcraft Arena is insatiable. We’ve been reluctant to simply apply a solo queue wrapper around the existing Arena format for several reasons. But we’ve never stopped asking ourselves how we could provide a solo queue experience without falling prey to the problems we foresee with it. Today, we’d like to share more information and insights on an idea we’re experimenting with in a future brawl called “Solo Shuffle.”

Why Queue Solo?

First, we’d like to talk about the reasons players want solo queue Arena, as we understand them. Many players have a general love for Arena, but their regular partners are not always around to team up. While the Group Finder is available, players have given us feedback that it can take too long to find suitable partners with the tool.  While we are working on...

Get Ready for Eternity's End

Zovaal, the elusive Jailer and ruler of the Maw in the Shadowlands, has made his next move—and with it, he threatens to rewrite the rules of reality. In Eternity's End, you'll face him, and perhaps save Azeroth and the Shadowlands from a fate worse than death. Eternity's End features include:

New Zone: Zereth Mortis

Zereth Mortis was created by the First Ones as a workshop to create afterlives. Its denizens—the automa—have built all that exists in the Shadowlands. It is a strange, otherworldly location that defies all concepts of reality or physics. The Jailer intends to use the secrets of Zereth Mortis to reshape reality and bend it to his malevolent will.

Welcome!

It’s been three weeks since we first released Mercenaries and we’re delighted to see our community hunt down bosses, make themselves cozy in the Village, and chase glory in the Fighting Pits. We’re excited to share some numbers with you, some insights into recent changes, some of our upcoming plans, and a few changes we’re making over the coming months to improve the player experience.

Mercenaries Launch Celebration

When we were building Mercenaries, we were looking to make a mode that delivered different gameplay experiences than Standard, Battlegrounds, and our other modes. Our goal was to figure out how to build a great collection RPG, with deep, strategic combat that you can pick up and play even for bite-sized play sessions. To us, the heart of Mercenaries is collecting Mercenaries, powering them up, and engaging in strategic combat with your foes – be they PvE or PvP.

Greetings, citizens of Azeroth –

The World of Warcraft community is second to none with the passion, love, and excitement you all show to the game. Player feedback impacts all aspects of the game, and with such a wide range of opinions, playstyles, and interests out there, gathering and understanding feedback is more important than ever.

Our goal is to gather more detailed feedback on all aspects of World of Warcraft from players around the world with a wide range of backgrounds and interests.

Here's how it works:

• Submissions are open to any player interested in taking part in the program.
