Blizzard's Seeds of Renewal content update launched on January 16, 2024. The update added the Azerothian Archives Public Event — a time-travel journey through Azeroth and the Dragon Isles that uncovers secrets hidden for centuries — plus a brand-new zone called Bel'ameth, a thriving kaldorei (Night Elf) homeland with fresh quests and deep lore.
Dragonriding returned to the old-world continents in this update, letting players soar over Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms on their existing dragons. NPC companions joined players in the new dragonflight dungeons, adding a story layer to the instance experience. Dragon Isle epilogue campaign chapters also continued, deepening the Dragonflight narrative.

AWC participants competed in rated 3v3 arena brackets against the top PvP teams in each region. Those climbing the ladder can boost Solo Shuffle rating to build competitive experience.
