WoW Season of Discovery Phase 4: Global release date and times

World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery phase three increased the level cap to 50, added the Sunken Temple raid, and introduced Nightmare Incursions. It’s been over a month since phase three launched, so fans are wondering when phase four drops.

Season of Discovery phase four will increase the level cap to 60, spice up the dungeon and raid pools, and introduce additional endgame activities. With this phase, you can head to old and iconic raids like Molten Core and Blackwing Lair. It’ll be interesting to see how Blizzard releases them given they typically come in different patches.
