Beta Realm Maintenance (October 8)

Blizzard community manager Kaivax announced Beta realm maintenance on Oct 8 (Thu), 7:58 AM.

Starting in one hour at Oct 8 (Thu), 9:00 AM, we will take the WoW Forever Beta down for maintenance and updates. We’re starting a bit earlier today than we have on previous Thursdays, because we’ve gathered up several fixes for behind-the-scenes, non-gameplay issues that we’re going to deploy and then test internally, in addition to a full suite of bug fixes and gameplay adjustments.

If this was a live game, we’d post in the Breaking News banner that we expect to bring realms back online by Oct 8 (Thu), 3:00 PM.

We’ll have a full update of our Development Notes ↗ and Known Issues ↗ posts later today.

Thank you for joining us on this adventure!
