World of Warcraft Midnight Expansion Takes Housing to the Next Level

Say Hello to Your New Virtual Pad!

Alright, fellow adventurers! World of Warcraft is finally giving you the chance to roll out a welcome mat with its fabulous new housing feature in the Midnight expansion. But, spoiler alert: this is an exclusive party for those who pre-ordered. No worries though, these homes are as diverse as a Dwarven tavern at Happy Hour, with players whipping up everything from snug little cottages to majestic Viking longhouses, and even those whimsical ghost ships you thought only existed in pirate tales! Talk about letting your imagination run wild!

Now, before you grab your timber and nails, there’s just one tiny hiccup. Picture this: you’re building your dream house, but uh-oh! No one told you where the property line is. That’s right, up until now, figuring out your boundaries was like playing hopscotch on a minefield – tons of guesswork involved! If you went a little too far, you’d get a rude awakening when your item wouldn’t place. Frustrating, right?

Blizzard to the Rescue!

But hang tight, Blizzard heard our cries! They’re rolling out a nifty solution that’ll quite literally outline your boundaries. So, when you’re in Edit Mode, a faint yellow border will appear, waving at you like a buddy saying, “Hey, this is yours – no trespassing!” This feature just popped up in the Midnight beta, and we’re pretty sure it’ll be live in no time.

Now, here’s a quirky twist: that yellow line isn’t exactly a strict no-go zone. Some crafty players have discovered that they can still sneak some items just past the border if they’re feeling rebellious. Go ahead and test those limits, but don’t say I sent you if you get caught!

In other exciting news, larger house options are making their debut in the ‘Edit House Exterior’ section, so no more cramped quarters for all your furniture! Plus, Blizzard is sprinkling in other quality-of-life upgrades, like slick new alerts for when you’re being targeted by pesky enemies. Because who doesn’t love a little audio panic in their life?

If you’re itching to design the ultimate virtual mansion, you can dive into the housing feature early by pre-ordering any version of the Midnight expansion. But if patience is your virtue, hold tight until the full launch on March 2, 2026, and let the magic unfold!
