Anniversary Event Asset Hinted at Player Housing Long Before Its Official Reveal

Staff's Avatar by Staff

WoW’s 20th Anniversary Event may have quietly foreshadowed one of the game’s most anticipated features–player housing! Behind the World Boss Guide Izaik Kadarov are trophy walls adorned with dragon heads, tentacles, shields, and weapons. The assets were added long before Blizzard officially revealed the player housing system!

During the 30th Anniversary Direct, Blizzard revealed player housing coming in the Midnight expansion through a teaser where we saw a wall customized with assets like Onyxia’s Head and the Bulwark of Azzinoth shield. This wall was nearly identical to the one seen during the 20th-anniversary event, giving us a subtle preview of the customization we can expect in our homes!
