This feature has been claimed for twenty years by World of Warcraft players. She is coming soon, and we now know how she will work

World of Warcraft has been bringing epic adventures to its players for twenty years now. Heroes have traveled the length and breadth of Azeroth, but have never really had a place to settle down. This mistake will soon be fixed with a feature coming this year. Blizzard has more information today.

In World of Warcraft, there is a feature that players have been asking for for twenty years now: housing. This is a game mode that allows you to create your own home and have a place of your own to invite friends over or simply rest between quests. Other MMOs like FF14 already benefit from this feature, and WoW is finally going to get involved.

Housing was announced for late 2024, but since then, we've had few details. All we knew was that there would be two instances, one for Horde players and one for Alliance players, and that houses would be organized by neighborhood, with fixed neighbors to create a social aspect. Today, we know more!

World of Warcraft presents its housing, it will be possible to customize everything

In a long article published On its official website, Blizzard details how housing is built. Here, we're particularly interested in the interior. It will be possible to fully customize your furniture, the layout of your rooms, and even the colors of the trinkets collected during your adventures. Two modes are offered: basic, which allows you to easily attach furniture to the floor and walls with a collision system, and advanced, which offers all the eccentricities. The videos shared suggest something complete.

A Note that Blizzard indicates that the exterior of your home will be undecorated from the interior. This means it will be possible to have a tiny shack, but huge once inside. After all, this is Warcraft, magic makes everything possible. Players will also have to create the layout of their home, choose the wallpaper and flooring. In short, it's complete. More than that, it's a true revolution for the august MMO.

Housing has been a long time coming, but it's coming! No specific date yet, but the studio has announced that the feature should be live before the end of 2025... that's 21 years after WoW's initial release. Better late than never, as they say.
