Wrath of the Lich King Classic Release Time in your region
World of Warcraft’s Wrath of the Lich King Classic will be going online soon, and Blizzard has, as always, supplied accurate information on the WotLK release schedule so you will know exactly when you can log in.
The official WotLK release date is September 27 at 12:00 a.m. CEST. That is the same release time everywhere, so you will not miss out because Australia and New Zealand start their games earlier. Since the official release date for the World of Warcraft Classic expansion is not until October, it implies that North American players can jump in the game on September 26.
Blizzard has produced a chart(opens in new tab) that details the release’s rollout across different time zones. However, those timings are presented in bullet point format a little farther down the page if you are having trouble making them out.

Exactly like every other Classic WoW add-on. All current subscribers can get Wrath of the Lich King at no additional cost. Still, there are a number of cosmetic and functional enhancements available for purchase. With the Heroic upgrade, your character’s level will be increased to 70, you will receive the Pebble penguin pet, and you will be accompanied on fishing trips by a tuskarr. In addition to the standard benefits, the Epic upgrade grants you 30 days of game time, a Whalebone Glider mount (for Classic) or a Tuskarr Shoreglider (for non-Classic) and other cosmetic items.
