World of Warcraft (WoW) Classic players will be able to travel to Northrend on 26th September 2022 with Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK) Classic's release. The WotLK Classic pre-patch is already live, and players are preparing to face the Lich King again. Blizzard is now offering WoW Classic Northrend Heroic and Epic Upgrade packages to purchase for those who want to enhance their experience and might not have played TBC Classic.

This article outlines the price for both Northrend Upgrade packages and includes an overview of the items you will receive if you decide to purchase one.
