City of Dalaran: WoW Forever Dungeon Guide

What Blizzard has said about City of Dalaran

In the What’s Next panel Blizzard put the City of Dalaran in the Alterac Mountains with its magic coming apart: spells backfire, arcane constructs run wild and demonic energy spreads through the streets. The line from the panel is that this is more than a dungeon — the city itself is there to explore.

Kaivax’s September 15 table puts it at levels 28–33. An earlier figure of 20–35 went around after the panel and is out of date; Wowhead’s own dungeon guide still carries “Level 20-35” in its text while its table says 28–33.

Blizzard released a press kit screenshot of the dungeon, with robed casters around a glowing rune circle.

Where City of Dalaran is

The city stands in the Alterac Mountains, where Classic players only ever saw the purple dome.

Wowhead’s dungeon overview adds that the barrier has come down and the city has been rebuilt but is not fully under control, which is why the Kirin Tor need help — the same story Blizzard told on stage.
