The Blizzcon 2017 is over, and fans of World of Warcraft can look forward to a lot of content in the future. With all the excitement around Battle for Azeroth and WoW Classic, J. Allen Brack seemed to have forgotten to announce the release of Antorus, the Burning Throne in November!
The promised content for WoW in the coming time has set many gamers’ hearts racing. Blizzard knows how to build hype. However, amidst all the information, WoW: Legion seemed to fall a bit by the wayside.
After the announcements regarding the Classic servers, the new addon Battle for Azeroth, and the changes in Patch 7.3.5, there was no clear statement about when the last raid of Legion would be released.
Antorus Release: No one asks in the Q&A – so players directly ask the boss!
The WoW player AshTag finally set off after the panels to speak personally with Executive Producer J. Allen Brack. He assured that Antorus, the Burning Throne, is set to be deployed on the American servers on November 28.
Twitter user Rho from Realm Maintenance sought confirmation of this information. After a brief conversation with Brack, he tweeted that the information is correct and the raid will indeed be released on the mentioned date.
I actually just spoke with J Allen Brack and he outright confirmed this. This is legit. Thanks Ash. https://t.co/xKQ2XmlrD2

Europe will arrive a bit later, LFR has to wait
For Europe, this means that WoW players can start exploring Antorus from November 29. There is no exact indication of which wing will open when. However, based on past experience, the schedule should look approximately like this:
- November 29: Opening of Antorus, the Burning Throne in normal and heroic mode.
- December 6: Mythic mode and the first LFR wing with the Garothi Worldbreaker, the Felhounds of Sargeras, and the Antoran Command.
- December 20: second LFR wing with Portal Keeper Hasabel, Eonar the Lifebinder, and Imonar the Soulhunter.
- January 2: third LFR wing with Kin’garoth, Varimathras, and the Circle of Shivarra.
- January 16: last LFR wing with Aggramar and Argus, the Unmaker.
There is no official confirmation of the dates; the above list is derived from observations of the last releases.
