  • A max character level of 50, which will prepare players for the level 60 cap in Shadowlands.
  • Exile’s Reach, a complete overhaul of WoW’s new player experience with its own epic story, which introduces players to the game’s core elements.
  • Hundreds of new character customization options for all character races.
  • Item and stat level adjustments to support the new level caps.
  • And much more!

Be sure to check out the World of Warcraft website as well as the pre-patch survival guide for a full rundown of what’s included in this content update.
