New WoW Player Housing Details focus on Interior Decoration

Blizzard have released a new article looking at how interior decoration will work in WoW's upcoming Player Housing system. The hotly anticipated feature is expected to arrive with the Midnight expansion, which currently has no release date but is expected to be shown off sometime in Summer, 2025. The interior decoration system will work in two modes, which players can freely switch between. Basic mode will allow you to place objects that snap to walls or ceilings, with collision as you might expect. Advanced mode however, will allow for more freedom in decorating by turning collision off and letting players freely resize, rotate, and elevate objects as they wish. The article includes several short videos showing work-in-progress builds of the system on both control modes. It also gives some examples of how the team has used the advanced mode, such as using paint buckets as spice jars on a kitchen shelf or a bed to make a boat's prow. Additionally, players will be able to recolor some of the interior decoration objects made specifically for WoW's new Player Housing, but legacy objects made previously may be less customizable. Late last year, Blizzard announced the return of the Plunderstorm battle royale mode alongside a new zone called Siren Isle. More recently, we saw the launch of The War Within Season 2 which brought a variety of new mounts and delves. WoW's Player Housing system is expected to launch alongside the Midnight expansion, which does not currently have a release date. World of Warcraft: The War Within is immediately available for PC and Mac. The post New WoW Player Housing Details focus on Interior Decoration appeared first on Siliconera.
