On the Blizzard EU forum, players discuss whether the Forsaken fit into the Horde

28.09.2026

A player opened a thread on the official Blizzard EU forum with a hypothetical question: would the Forsaken feel out of place if Blizzard announced them as a new Horde race in World of Warcraft: Forever?

On the official Blizzard EU forum a thread titled "Forsaken as Wow Forever New Race" has appeared. It's not an announcement or a blue post — the thread was started by a regular player, and only two people are taking part in the discussion.

The author poses a thought experiment for the community: if the Forsaken hadn't existed in vanilla WoW and Blizzard announced them as a new playable Horde race in Forever, wouldn't they feel out of place? Wouldn't the lore have to be retroactively explained — why the Horde accepted them and why they aren't fully trusted? And then, half-jokingly, adds his own suggestion to remove Forsaken rogues from the game before it's too late.

What matters here

  • This is a discussion, not news. No changes to Forever have been announced based on the thread.
  • The topic was opened on the official Blizzard EU forum in the WoW section — it's an indicator of community sentiment, not a studio position.
  • The thread is short: 2 posts, 2 participants, and according to the thread's metadata there is no developer response.

In practice

  • Don't expect in-game changes based on this topic — no official statements stand behind it.
  • If you're interested in actual Forever changes to the Horde and races, follow blue posts and patch notes, not isolated forum threads.
  • On the forum it's worth looking for threads with developer responses — unlike this one, those turn into confirmed changes.
