Summary
Positioned explicitly as a 'third pillar' of WoW alongside Retail and Classic Era Design pillars: Approachable & Familiar, Journey Before Destination, Protect Social Experiences, Azeroth as Main Character Quote: 'You are not the main character, the world is the main character. You're not a champion, you are just another soldier.' Note: article stated 'closed beta begins November 2026' which conflicts with the known Sept 17-Oct 21 open beta window and Nov 4 launch date — likely refers to a different beta phase or an error; flagged as unverified, not corroborated elsewhere
