The moment many of us have been waiting for is here: The Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary is officially live!
Players around the world are fired up and ready to jump back into Outland — but there’s a catch.

👉 As of right now, the servers are not yet online due to ongoing technical issues. The team is actively working on resolving these problems, and we’ll update this post as soon as things are back up and running.

Server Status & What’s Next

At the time of writing:

🚫 Servers are live in name only — you can’t log in yet.
Technical challenges have delayed full access, and the team has indicated that more updates are coming soon.

We’ll be tracking progress closely and will post updates and server status alerts as Blizzard provides them.

Stay tuned, keep your screenshots ready, and we’ll see you in Outland as soon as the gates open!
