World of Warcraft: Dragonflight is drawing to a close, and things are ramping up ahead of the release of the next expansion, The War Within. The next step in that process is the Dark Heart Content Update, which paves the way for what’s to come.
The first thing to note here is that it kicks off the upcoming story in earnest. Archmage Khadgar summons the player to Dalaran to investigate a mysterious figure known as The Harbinger, who possesses a powerful relic known as the Dark Heart.
Additionally, Draenei and Troll players can now also unlock their Heritage Armor. Draenei players Level 50 and above need to track down the Magically-Sealed Parcel to start the An Artificer’s Appeal quest. For Trolls, seek out Zi’guma in Orgrimmar and start the Return to the Echo Isles quest.
Read on for our full breakdown of all the changes coming in the Dark Heart Content Update.
