What's Next?

Some of you might be wondering what’s next, what’s happening behind the scenes, what’s left for 80 cap, and when 90 cap is coming. There will be a dedicated announcement soon, but here’s a quick summary for now:

Lately, I’ve been re-evaluating the overall direction. It’s clear that many players are taking a well-deserved break, this has been a long cap. So rather than stretching it out any more, I’d rather shift focus toward something fresh and exciting: 90 cap. It feels like the right time to move forward, and work for it has already begun. I cannot give too many details now on what exactly 90 cap will look like, but it'll be talked about soon.
That said, as plans have changed and the old “upscaled raids” idea is off the table, what you can expect for the rest of 80 cap is one final content update (more details in the upcoming announcement) and a focus on cleanup and transition work: SHD removal, daily quest reworks, and new content progression improvements to help introduce new or returning players before the next cap.
