BlizzConline: World of Warcraft Unveils New Feature

World of Warcraft Patch 11.1 introduces customizable character select screen backgrounds, called campsites. Four new campsites are initially available, with more promised in future updates.

Key Features:

  • Collectible Campsites: Four new campsites can be unlocked, each with unique acquisition methods.
  • Collections Pane Access: Players can preview and unlock campsites within the Collections pane.
  • Character Select Screen Customization: Easily switch between campsites for different character profiles, or randomize your selection.

The Four New Campsites:

Patch 11.1 adds four new campsites to the original "Adventurer's Rest":

Campsite Description Unlock Method
Ohn'ahran Overlook Centaur camp in the Ohn'ahran Plains Automatic login after Patch 11.1 installation
Freywold Spring Hot spring in Freywold Village, Isle of Dorn Completing the "All That Khaz" meta-achievement
Cultists' Quay Nightfall Sanctum Delve in Hallowfall Completing the Season 2 Delver's Journey
Gallagio Grand Gallery Gallywix's casino in Undermine Completing the "Racing to a Revolution" meta-achievement

The Ohn'ahran Overlook is automatically unlocked upon logging in after the patch. The remaining campsites require completing specific in-game achievements. All campsites can be managed and previewed in the updated Collections tab.

The character select screen now features a dedicated campsite tab, enabling easy selection and even random selection of favorite backgrounds. This expansion on the Warbands system suggests Blizzard plans to continue adding more customization options in future updates, potentially through various avenues including new content, events, the Trading Post, and even the in-game shop.
