Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft: The War Within will be entering its alpha testing phase this week. The test will be similar to the one introduced with Dragonflight and invites players to check out a large amount of content contained in The War Within’s first zone, The Isle of Dorn.
This week’s build includes:
- Isle of Dorn Quests: Most of the level-up campaign quests and local stories (side quests) will be available with some main story components remaining encrypted until the launch
- Two Dungeons: Cinderbrew Meadery & The Rookery
- Three Delves: Earthcrawl Mines, Fungal Folly and Kriegval’s Rest
- Profession Updates: Herbalism
- Hero Talents: Most classes will have at least one testable tree except for Assassination Rogue, Enhancement Shaman and Brewmaster Monk which will come online in later test builds.
On top of the upcoming alpha test, the team also announced The War Within Special Limited Physical Collector’s Edition which will be available for pre-order starting today through various global retailers. The set not only celebrates The War Within but also World of Warcraft as a whole as it reaches its 20th Anniversary.
The collector’s edition includes:
- Epic Edition tier of the game via digital download and all its bonuses
- Art of The War Within hardcover book
- Collector’s Pin featuring Alleria, Anduin and Thrall
- 20th Anniversary Gryphon Rider statue
The War Within is the first part of the Worldsoul Sage for World of Warcraft. It is set to be released this year.
