Blizzard has unveiled exciting new details about the upcoming in-game housing system for World of Warcraft: Midnight. Although the expansion is slated to launch post-The War Within as part of the Worldsoul saga, early previews hint at a customization level that exceeds many players' expectations.

A recent developer blog included in-game videos showcasing the furniture placement mechanics. The system utilizes a grid layout with automatic snapping, allowing players to effortlessly align items. Moreover, players can enhance larger objects such as shelves or tables by adding smaller accessories that remain attached even when the larger piece is repositioned.

The housing system offers two distinct modes: a Basic Mode for easy and straightforward organization, and an Advanced Mode designed for creative builders. In Advanced Mode, players have the flexibility to rotate objects along all three axes and stack them in innovative ways, facilitating the creation of intricate and visually appealing interiors.

A standout feature of this system is the ability to scale objects, catering to various character sizes. For example, gnomes can design more intimate spaces, whereas larger races like tauren can create more expansive layouts. Additionally, certain pieces of furniture designed specifically for the housing system will support recoloring, although legacy assets might not include this option.

With World of Warcraft: Midnight still months away, Blizzard is keeping the community engaged and excited by continuously teasing upcoming content and features, ensuring sustained interest in the game's future updates.
