Bonus Episode #66 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Sean step into the void to discuss the latest expansion to hit World of Warcraft, Midnight! Announced back at BlizzCon 2023 when the entire Worldsoul Saga was introduced and then reintroduced officially at Gamescom 2025, Midnight takes us back into the lands of Quel'Thalas to work alongside the Blood Elves and try to put a stop to Xal'atath and her destructive plans.

We're diving deep with this episode, starting with a lore dump and narrative recap of the events leading up to the expansion, as well as discussing the new Allied Race, the Haranir. We'll also touch on the four zones you'll quest through and talk a bit about the new dungeons and raids being introduced. Before wrapping up, Bryan has a theory about where all of this could be leading, and finally, we'll talk about a feature that the community has been asking for since almost the beginning: player housing. World of Warcraft: Midnight is a very promising expansion, and as usual, the soundtrack is absolutely incredible. Stick around and listen to perhaps the best soundtrack Blizzard has done since the Mists of Pandaria expansion. You won't be disappointed!
