Where the world grew

Confirmed

Forever adds width, not levels. Four new regions, reworked corners of the original map, and three sea routes that change how you cross it - all inside the journey from 1 to 60.

Every map the client holds

All 53 of them, from a single zone to a whole continent, read straight out of the Forever client. Split into Eastern Kingdoms, Kalimdor and the world itself, filterable by new and changed.

The zone names on those maps are our own reading of unlabelled art - the source carries no label beyond "Forever World Map 12".

Level 1–12 · Skyborne start

Zephras Isle

A newly discovered floating island: docks in the clouds, ships moored to stone spires by chains. Home of the Skyborne - and torn by the question of whether the old pact with the wind spirits of Skywall still carries the future.

Level ~35–45 · 150–200 quests

The Riverglades

The largest new leveling zone, roughly the size of Stranglethorn Vale, on the eastern coast between Redridge, Burning Steppes, Badlands and Swamp of Sorrows. Content for both factions, new reputations and Powderfuse Port, the goblin harbour at the end of the new Steamwheedle sea route.

Kalimdor · level tba

Shen'dralas

A long-hidden mystery south of Desolace, reached through the Valley of Bones and tied to the Shen'dralar, Eldre'Thalas, Dire Maul and the centaur tribes of the region. Blizzard has not confirmed a level range yet.

Endgame leveling

Mount Hyjal

The aftermath of the Battle for Mount Hyjal: the night elves have lost their immortality, something is draining the power of the land, and new factions are forming around the question of what comes next. Leads to Hyjal Summit - and holds one of three entrances into the Barrow Deeps.

Three new sea routes

Stormwind Harbour → Auberdine An early link between the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor, available well before the old crossings.
Menethil · Southshore → Auberdine A second route with more room to move while leveling.
Steamwheedle, Tanaris → Powderfuse Port Ends at the goblin harbour in the Riverglades.

Reworked corners of the old world

Wetlands: New quests. Also the way into the Excavation Site dungeon, via Whelgar's Excavation.
Desolace: More centaur content, with faction rewards attached.
Starting zones: Additional NPCs, quests, profession hooks and recipes across the old level 1-12 areas.

Blizzard named these three. There are likely more - nothing else has been confirmed.
