This article or section includes speculation, observations or opinions possibly supported by lore or by Blizzard officials. It should not be taken as representing official lore.

There are many closed off zones on Azeroth, but what if they were to be opened? The purpose of this page is to create a fact-based speculative zone ideas, similar to the Future race ideas page.

Argus

Mac'Aree

You see that little white spot on the planet's surface? Yep, that's Mac'Aree

+ At least one NPC from the zone

? It was said (though before the Sargeras/Eredar retcon) that Eredar had consumed their own homeworld, so Mac'Aree might no longer exist, as whole Argus.

? If we are to ever destroy the Legion in WoW, this city might be major stronghold of the Legion, as the capital of Argus, Eredar homeworld and probably man'ari headquarter.

Eastern Kingdoms

Kul Tiras

+ Established place in lore as human nation.

+ Many NPCs in game seems to originate in Kul Tiras.

+ Kul Tiras was said to survive both the Scourge and the Legion mostly untouched. Unless something bad happened after Admiral Daelin Proudmoore's departure, it might still be large and powerful human nation.

Zul'Aman

+ The instance doesn't cover up the entire zone. Many subzones already established in the lore are missing.

+ Tor'Watha, a troll gate in Eversong Woods, could lead to this zone.

? Already in-game as an instance.

Emerald Dream

+ The Emerald Dream has already been visited in WoW.

Kalimdor

Barrow Deeps

+ Established place in lore as the location of Druid of the Claw's lair's location and Illidan's prison.

+ Timbermaw Hold has a side tunnel currently blocked by a door that could lead down to this zone.

? Possible location for the dark trolls.

Northrend

Azjol-Nerub

+ The instances don't cover up the entire zone. Many subzones already established in the lore are missing.

? Already in-game as two instances.

- Not likely to happen as Northrend has already been played through with World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King.

South Seas

Broken Isles

Broken Isles during the Third War

? Location of the Tomb of Sargeras.

Dragon Isles

+ Has concept art already.

? Not much known about this place, they (or one of them) may be home of one of the dragonflights.

? Group of adventures planned to build a device to raise Nazjatar to the surface of the ocean in RPG book Shadows & Light. If they managed, it may have become the island in the concept art (see above).

Similarity to the dead old god in Master's Glaive hints too to nagas, since they were allies of Old Gods, who were behind their new form
