This page is meant for speculative ideas for future instances. The ideas listed here must be already in lore and/or unused in World of Warcraft.
Bael Modan (instanced)
- Location: Bael Modan
- Related lore characters (bosses): Archeras the Custodian, Stone guardians
- Notes: No entrance in WoW yet, but the ruins exist.
Dun Algaz (Fortress)
- Location: Wetlands, mountains to the West.
- Related lore characters (bosses): Unknown, maybe some Dragonmaw heroes, like Nekros
- Notes: No entrance in WoW yet, but the stronghold exists.
Mount Kajaro
- Location: Kezan, southern part of the island
- Related lore characters (bosses): Deathwing, Mogul Razdunk
- Notes: Location not yet in WoW. In keeping with the whimsical goblin themes, a dungeon/raid with Razdunk as the end boss could parody Goldfinger or Dr Evil, including a suitable "Guards! Seize them!" kind of moment.
Stormwind Vault
- Location: Stormwind, between Old Town and The Trade District
- Related lore characters (bosses): extremely dangerous entities?
- Notes: Entrance in WoW. Fully built in the files. One instance is already in Stormwind, so unlikely. May be too similar to other prison-themed instances in-game.
Oracle Cave
- Location: Stonetalon Peak, where Thrall consulted Medivh
- Related lore characters (bosses): Unknown, maybe Revenants seen at the oracle caves' end in WC3.
- Notes: Location not yet in WoW. Stonetalon Peak has a different use, with no sign of this cave. Thought RPG mentions there are many tunnels.
Tirisfal Grove
- Location: Western Tirisfal Glades
- Related lore characters (bosses): Old God or minion of an Old God
- Notes: Location unused in WoW. Name speculatory.
Tor'Watha
- Location: Eastern Quel'Thalas.
- Related lore characters (bosses): Unknown. Possibly troll leaders & loa priests.
- Notes: Swirling instance portal behind Tor'Watha's closed gate. Exterior structure is very similar to Zul'Aman's. Maybe new blood elf low level instance?
Bloodsail Hold
- Location: Plunder Isle
- Related lore characters (bosses): Duke Falrevere, Lester Zank, Wallace Boltscrew, Jessi Falrevere
- Notes: May be added in Sea expansion. It may be city to players with friendly reputation with them, because they cant quest in steamwheedle cartels cities. If it is so, it may be uninstanced. (Micro dungeon) Or maybe a second major city for that expansion. Like an opposing city to Undermine, for players friendly with the Bloodsail.
VanCleef's Revenge
- Location: Edge of the Maelstrom (reached by ship).
- Related lore characters (bosses): undead Edwin VanCleef, and other enemies fought in the Deadmines.
- Notes: This battle would take place on the juggernaut Van Cleef was planning to build, it would be reached if you where an alliance (or Horde if your lucky) character and the ship would be one of the Battleships being built. The instance would have to be special so you could only enter if your say 70-80.
Caverns of Time wings
Beyond the historical event itself, some of these are very fan-fiction based scenarios.
Medivh
- Location: Karazhan
- Related lore characters (bosses): Medivh possessed by Sargeras and his minions. Aid from Anduin Lothar, Garona and Khadgar. (Garona mystically disappears after Medivh bewitches her)
- Notes: 26 years ago. Instance starts outside Karazhan, where players and Anduin, Garona and Khadgar fly to Karazhan with gryphons, and land to hidden entrance. Once players have beat Medivh, Khadgar finishes him by impaling Lothars blade to his chest. Just like in Last Guardian.
Aegwynn vs Sargeras

- Notes: Roughly 25 years ago. Instance starts in an Orc Camp. The goal of this instance would be to aid the Old Horde in tearing down Stormwind forces, including beating down the Infinite Dragonflight messenger headed towards King Wrynn to warn him of the assassin in his midst. The party must defeat Anduin Lothar, driving him into the harbor as Stormwind refugees and wounded pile onto ships. Finally Garona lets the party into the throne room, where the slain messenger's failure prompts the Infinite Dragonflight to send in reinforcing troops, which the party must slay so that Garona can slip behind the throne in the calamity and engage in historic regicide
War of the Spider
- Location: Azjol-Nerub in its former glory.
- Related Lore Characters: Anub'Arak, Nerubian Lords, and possibly some Scourge and Burning Legion leaders.
- Notes: ?? years ago. Instance starts in the throne room of Azjol-Nerub. The object is to escort 5 spiderlords and Prince Anub'Arak out of Azjol-Nerub tripping booby traps and activating puzzles to make your job easier amongst waves of Scourge with as little spiderlord casualties as possible and Anub'Arak must survive. It will be heavily based on bonuses. Like for every spiderlord who dies you will lose a bonus. Also if you finish within a time limit you may get another bonus.
Fall of Dalaran
- Location: Destruction of Dalaran.
- Bosses: Nozdormu (final boss), Kel'Thuzad (You can defeat him after an escort?)
- Notes: it can also be done the other way around, fighting against the wizards and helping the Scourge destroy it
Old Raids
- Location: Various Locations
- Bosses: Old Raid Bosses
- Notes: Possibly a portal to a room with portals or just a room with portals that leads to the level 60 instance version of Naxxramas and Onixya, others once changes (because Molten Core at level 80 is being speculated) and later on, the level 70 versions of things, once blizzard starts to remake those (if they do end up doing so)

He'll retreat after all his health is taken down and you Escort Sylvanas all the way to Arthas (This allows you to Beat on Arthas though it doesn't really do anything) Your next job is to head to the Sunwell where a Infinite lord has taken the presence of a giant Crypt Lord that is pounding on Kael'Thas, Elimenating the boss shows a cut-scene and the final part of the Sunwell rampage.
