The long-awaited release date of World of Warcraft Midnight is rapidly approaching. For those eager to dive in as soon as possible, questions around early access are understandable.
Midnight brings major new additions to World of Warcraft, including housing, and there’s plenty for players to sink their teeth into in Blizzard‘s latest big drop. As has become natural in modern gaming, impatient players have opportunities to jump in early doors.
For all the details on early access to World of Warcraft Midnight, Insider Gaming has you covered.
Can You Play WoW Midnight Through Early Access?
Yes, the World of Warcraft Midnight expansion is available to play through early access, giving players more time to jump in and experience all the new additions, but it comes at a cost.
Early access to WoW Midnight is reserved for those who splash out on the Epic Edition, which is priced at $89.99. Alongside the main benefit of early access to the Midnight expansion, from February 26, the Epic Edition also includes other bonuses.

Additional rewards include 2,000 Trader’s Tender, the Lightwing Dragonhawk Flying Mount, 30 days of game time, Hopeflutter and Doomfeathers Pets, Transmog sets, and other exclusive cosmetic items.
Neither the Midnight Base Edition or Midnight Heroic Edition provide entry to early access, so there’s only one option if you want to jump in earlier than the full release date.
Does WoW Midnight Have A Demo?
No, there is no demo available for World of Warcraft’s Midnight expansion. However, there has been a beta period for players to test out the new features.
Similar to early access, entry to the beta is reserved only for those who purchase the Midnight Epic Edition, alongside the aforementioned other bonuses.

The beta for Midnight has been live since late last year, and this close to release, it’s not worth splashing out on the Epic Edition solely for beta access.
However, if you’re desperate to play as soon as possible, then early access might be worth considering.
