Is World of Warcraft on console?

In short, no, World of Warcraft is not available on console. While Blizzard’s other titles, including the likes of Overwatch and Diablo, are available on all platforms, WoW remains a PC exclusive.

Is WoW coming to console in the future?

While Blizzard have made some game-changing alterations to their titles in the past, including making Overwatch crossplay five years after release, it seems that the devs have no intention of making WoW available on console.

Following a mistake by Brazil’s Ministry of Justice which saw the title rated for Xbox, during an interview with Polygon a spokesperson for the company confirmed that “we currently have no plans to bring World of Warcraft or Shadowlands to Xbox Series X.”

This somewhat squashes a series of rumors that WoW will be announced on Xbox on December 9. After a now-deleted Reddit post showed details of a “World of Warcraft: Complete Edition” listed as an upcoming game for Xbox, we’ll have to wait and see if the devs have indeed made a U-turn on their decision.

However, the confirmation that Microsoft is buying out Activision Blizzard may imply that the title will eventually make it onto Xbox despite the devs shutting it down previously. In terms of PlayStation, however, the odd looks unlikely.

So that’s everything we know about World of Warcraft on console! Will Xbox, Switch, and PlayStation users finally be able to take their shot at glory? Who knows what the future holds. Until then, be sure to check out our list of WoW guides:
