World of Warcraft is diving head first to a Goblin-themed patch called "Undermine(d)". In The War Within Patch 11.1, players will get to explore a Goblin city burried deep with Khaz Algar, harboring merchants, thieves, whacky inventors, trash and toxic fumes, and a whole lot of fun.
Not only will Season 2 bring forth a new raid, but also a new Mythic+ dungeon pool, a new PvP season, new Delves, transmogs, challenges, gear and many many cosmetics for the brave adventurers looking to push it to the limit with their foot on the pedal of their new D.R.I.V.E vehicle. With that being said, we will take a look as to when we can expect The War Within Season 2 to go live.
