On February 25, World of Warcraft released Patch 11.1, Undermine(d). The first major content update of The War Within brings fans to the subterranean Goblin metropolis of Undermine, where they contend with the clashing schemes of Jastor Gallywix and Xal’atath. The War Within Season 2, as well as the last part of the Patch 11.1 story, was released a week later on March 4.

World of Warcraft Might Have Just Teased Patch 11.2
World of Warcraft drops a huge teaser for what could be the subject of Patch 11.2 a mere week after the release of the Undermine(d) content update.
Less than a day after that, World of Warcraft has pulled back the curtain on the next content update for the expansion. Patch 11.1.5 is the first of two World of Warcraft updates to take place between 11.1 and 11.2. The headlining feature of this patch is Nightfall, an activity in which players team up with Flame’s Radiance, a new faction featuring a 10-tier Renown track. Fans will face down Nerubian Sureki loyalists in the aftermath of Queen Ansurek’s downfall via a new public scenario, as well as in skirmishes across Hallowfall and Azj-Kahet, to earn armor sets, weapons, a tabard that changes appearance with Renown rank, an alternative color for the Delver’s Dirigible, and even global buffs while in the two zones.
