What will come in patch 9.1 - Chains of Domination

Major Story quests including a lot of the main characters of the Shadowlands that are centered most specifically around the designs and plans of the Jailer and his attacks on our allies in our Covenants.

We will be taking revenge by taking the fight directly to the Jailer in the Maw and forming a permanent presence there with all 4 Covenants.

We´ll be exploring some never-before-seen sections of the Maw including the new area known as Korthia and its various mysteries.

We will be taking the fight to the Jailer himself in the new Raid, Sanctum of Domination, which has the final boss as Sylvannas Windrunner.  

Updates for Torghast including some never-before-seen wings, floors, creatures, and powers.

A new Mega dungeon will be introduced, themed around brokers as a floating Broker trading City with new bosses to fight there and some very unique loot to obtain.

Conduit and Soulbind systems will expand and adding additional choice and power to your character in your Covenant.

Brand new Covenant rewards, including Covenant-Themed flying mounts, and Covenant-themed cosmetic armor sets. Both will be available in a variety of different colors to collect.

The launch of Shadowlands Season 2! Item level increase across the border, new Domination-Themed Affix on mythic plus, new PvP season and a refreshment of the honor talents.
