Forever launches on 4 November 2026 and its first raids open on 9 December. The guilds raiding that week are being built now. Create yours, pick its ruleset, and start recruiting before anybody can log in.
Create your guild or browse Forever guilds. Free. Sign in with Discord, and your raiders need no account of their own to sign up.
Five weeks separate launch from any raid existing. What a guild does with them is most of the difference between raiding on 9 December and still recruiting.
Everybody shares one world. Instead of picking a server you pick a gameplay style — and Blizzard has confirmed cross-ruleset grouping is not supported. You party, run dungeons and raid only with people who chose the same one, which makes this the single decision a guild cannot afford to get wrong.
Hardcore arrives after launch, and Forever’s Hardcore is not the same thing as Classic Hardcore, which is its own version with its own realms.
Where one of these is not ready, Raidify says so on the screen you would use it, rather than failing quietly.
Forever launches globally on 4 November 2026 at 3:00pm PST, with beta running since 17 September. Its first raids — the Barrow Deeps at 10 players and Hyjal Summit at 20 — unlock on 9 December 2026. Blizzard has announced Hardcore and a revamped iconic raid as post-launch content without giving dates.
No. Forever is realmless: everybody shares one world, and instead of picking a server you pick a ruleset. Three are available at launch — Normal, PvP and Roleplaying — with Hardcore arriving after. The choice matters more than a realm ever did, because Blizzard has confirmed cross-ruleset grouping is not supported: you can only party, run dungeons and raid with people who chose the same ruleset as you.
Yes. You can create a guild on Forever today, choose its ruleset, and publish a recruitment listing that players can find and apply to — weeks before anybody can log in. The conversation continues in Discord.
Blizzard has named two raids for 9 December 2026: the Barrow Deeps, a maximum-level 10-player challenge, and Hyjal Summit at 20 players. A 20-player raid has no direct precedent in Classic, so composition for it is new ground — too large for a 10-man core, too small to carry passengers the way 40 could.
Guild setup and recruitment work today, along with raid sign-ups, the Discord bot, group planning and assignments. Armory roster sync and Warcraft Logs integration wait on Blizzard and WCL adding Forever support, and raid and loot data for Forever’s own instances follows the first raids on 9 December.
Raidify’s guild finder lists Forever guilds by ruleset, region, raid style and the nights they raid. Ruleset is a hard filter rather than a preference, because a guild on a different ruleset is one you cannot group with at all. Applying takes a Discord sign-in, and the conversation moves to the guild’s own Discord from there.
Publish a listing and players searching for a Forever guild can find you by ruleset, raid style and the nights you actually raid.
