The launch date for World of Warcraft: Forever has finally arrived, but players are going to need to wait for the scheduled maintenance to wrap up before they can dive into their Classic+ adventures this evening.
World of Warcraft Launch Times By Time Zone
After an incredibly popular beta test that drove a ton of new and returning players to Azeroth, World of Warcraft: Forever is now preparing for its official launch.

November 4, 2026 is the global launch day, but players need to wait until later in the afternoon or evening (depending on time zone) to actually start their adventure in the unsolved game.
For gamers in the U.S., play will begin on the east coast at 6:00pm ET and on the west coast at 3:00pm PT.
Here is a breakdown of the estimated release times for each time zone:
- Americas (PST) – 15:00 on November 4
- Brazil (BRT) – 20:00 on November 4
- UK (GMT) – 23:00 on November 4
- Europe (CET) – 00:00 on November 5
- Taiwan (CST) – 07:00 on November 5
- Korea (KST) – 08:00 on November 5
- ANZ (AEDT) – 10:00 on November 5
- UTC – 23:00 on November 4
When the servers go live, it will be very interesting to see what sort of queues and wait times there will be. Players don’t have to worry about selecting individual servers anymore, instead they’ll just choose a rule set (Normal, RP, PvP, or RP PvP). This mega server approach should help reduce server overload, but players should still expect some queues and hiccups for the first few hours.
