How to read this update
Classic-family announcements need edition-level context. Similar names do not mean shared rules, so verify the realm type, phase, patch basis, and whether the change applies globally or only to a regional service.

The headline, publication time, image, and source link come from an official Blizzard property. The summary and analysis are original WCL Lens editorial copy. Dates, availability, and live-service details can change, so use the linked announcement for the final wording.
