The first major content patch for The War Within<\/em> is all about goblins<\/a>, and the patch is set to arrive on Feb. 25. Tuesday, Blizzard announced the release date for both the main patch and the beginning of season 2, as well as a rundown of all the new features players can expect. The expansion\u2019s story takes us to Undermine, the goblin capital \u2014 a massive urban center with driveable and upgradeable cars, a series of competing cartels, and a new dungeon centered around blowing up a dam.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The patch, titled Undermined, will go live in two parts. On Feb. 5, Undermine will open up, with the new D.R.I.V.E. system, joinable cartels, the Operation: Floodgate dungeon, new Delves, and a new PvP map. Players will also be able to pick new log-in camps for their Warbands<\/a>, which is a nice cosmetic feature that lets all of your alts hang out.<\/p>\n

On March 2, players will be able to participate in the new raid, Liberation of Undermine, and finally beat up long-time bad guy Gallywix. There will be new tier sets for each class in Liberation of Undermine, a popular feature for completionists and those into their class\u2019 aesthetic fantasy. Blizzard will also introduce an updated Mythic+ rotation. We\u2019ll just have to wait and see how the raid concludes, and how this links to the greater story of Xal\u2019atath and her schemes<\/a>.<\/p>\n
