World of Warcraft’s patch 11.0.7 will introduce a new zone named Siren Isle alongside story content and a handful of other goodies, Blizzard has confirmed. Although the developer has yet to provide a release date, the patch, which is smaller in scope, is already available on the public test realm, where players can provide feedback on its upcoming additions.
These details were shared with the MMORPG’s 20th anniversary event in full swing and set to keep us busy until early next year, making it likely that WoW’s patch 11.0.7 won’t release before 2025 unless the studio is cooking up an extra holiday surprise.
World of Warcraft Patch 11.0.7
The big draw of this content update is the new Siren’s Isle zone, which is home to three rather nostalgic enemy factions. The Bloodwake Vrykul, naga, and pirates “will be rotating around on the island” and we’ll encounter a different one each week, as noted by Associate Game Designer Katie Grace in the video embedded below.
The isle has its fair share of mysteries, but is also plagued by storms that prompt powerful ocean creatures to take to land. We’ll be able to defend the allied factions who join us on the isle by facing these creatures using a variety of weapons, vehicles, and tools.
As we explore, we’ll discover three caves, each one belonging to a different faction – Earthen, Goblin, and Arathi. They’re sealed up by default, with deadly foes waiting within, and we’ll be able to help with excavating them to uncover events.
Alongside Siren Isle, WoW’s patch 11.0.7 introduces a new currency called Flame Blessed Iron, which we’ll use to summon one of three event bosses (possibly those inside the caves), but also obtain “items like mounts, pets, gear, and transmogs” and upgrade the Cyrce’s Circlet ring.
The item comes with three sockets – each of a different type – into which we can slot different gems.
In terms of story, World of Warcraft’s patch 11.0.7 closes The War Within’s campaign with an epilogue focused on the Kirin Tor, who “must confront their past mistakes and decide on the future course of their people.”
The update also looks towards the future with the prologue for the patch 11.1 campaign, during which we’ll “uncover a familiar face in the darkness.”
Timewalking dungeons are also set to return, rewarding players with the Timely Buzzbee Skyriding mount, while Human and Kul Tiran characters will have new Arathi ear customizations to look forward to.
More details about WoW’s patch 11.0.7 will be shared in the lead-up to launch, but you can already peruse the PTR patch notes over on the forums.
