[Game Information] World of Warcraft is gearing up for its next major patch coming early next year, which will send players to a location that’s been talked about in the game for years, but never visited: the goblin capital of Undermine.

With patch 11.1, “Undermine(d)”, players will visit the goblin city of Undermine buried deep in the earth, where they’ll ally themselves with one of the four major goblin cartels and navigate the complex politics of the city. They’ll receive a new customizable ground mount specifically built for use in Undermine (it’s a fancy car) that goes really, really fast.

As usual for a new major patch, Undermine(d) will bring with it numerous new activities. There’s a new arena map, and a new dungeon, Operation Floodgate, which will join the remaining four The War Within launch dungeons in the Mythic pool.

There will also be two new delves, some new variations on existing delves, and new story and updates for delve companion Brann Bronzebeard. Finally, there’s a new eight-boss raid, The Liberation of Undermine, which will take teams through the city itself and into the decadent heart of the goblin empire, where players will finally fight goblin faction leader Gallywix.

Undermine is a significant location in the Warcraft universe, though this is the first time players will visit it. In Warcraft’s history, Undermine was the underground site beneath the isle of Kezan that goblins claimed for their capital after rebelling against the Zandalari trolls.

However, during the Cataclysm, the volcano the city was situated beneath erupted. The goblins evacuated the surface of Kezan, and Undermine was thought to have been destroyed.

However, there have been hints ever since then that Undermine is still operational, and the new patch will allow us to see the city for the first time.

World of Warcraft patch 11.1 “Undermine(d)” is planned for release early next year, with a patch 11.2 coming in the summer. You can catch up with everything announced from today’s Warcraft Direct right here, including remasters of Warcraft 1 and 2, updates to World of Warcraft: Classic, and teases of the next WoW retail expansion, Midnight.
