Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about WoW Forever access and purchases.
Do I need to buy Forever if I already subscribe to WoW?
The base game is included with an active WoW subscription or game time. Buy a pack only if you want Skyborne, included beta access, or other extras.
Does signing up guarantee beta access?
No. The official sign-up offers a chance to participate. Epic Pack and Collection list Beta Access as a pack benefit.
Does Heroic Pack include beta access?
No. Heroic includes Skyborne, its starting experience, and early name reservation, but the official comparison does not list Beta Access.
Is the mainland China launch date confirmed?
No verifiable mainland schedule is available. The English official page and Taiwan store dates do not establish a mainland server date.
