WoW Forever battlegrounds: the list
In short
- The client data lists five battlegrounds: Alterac Valley, Arathi Basin, Battle for Gilneas, Darkspear Islands and Warsong Gulch.
- The list comes from a fan site reading client build 1.60.1.70862, not from Blizzard.
- An arena entry exists in the client data, but arena has not been officially announced.
Where this list comes from
World of Warcraft: Forever launched on November 4, 2026. Blizzard has not published a full battleground table that we could find, so this list is taken from a fan site that reads the game client data for build 1.60.1.70862. It is not official, and content that appears in client data is not always playable yet.
Battlegrounds in the client data
| Battleground | Team size | Levels |
|---|---|---|
| Alterac Valley | 40v40 | 51-60 |
| Arathi Basin | 15v15 | 20-60 |
| Battle for Gilneas | 10v10 | Not listed in our source |
| Darkspear Islands | 15v15 | 30-60 |
| Warsong Gulch | 10v10 | 10-60 |
Arena: in the data, not announced
The same client data contains an arena entry, Hyjal Crater Arena, for 5 players. That is not an announcement. A fan guide on features compared with Classic and Retail says arena has not been announced, and we found no official statement either way. Do not plan around arena until Blizzard says so.
Where Foreverhead fits
Foreverhead is planned as a database built from the game client’s own data. It is not open yet. Until it is, treat any list of this kind, including this one, as a snapshot of one client build, and check the game itself.
