WoW Patch 11.1: Undermine and Beyond – Exploring New Subzones
World of Warcraft's upcoming Patch 11.1, "Undermined," introduces the sprawling subterranean Goblin capital, Undermine. But the expansion goes further, adding several new subzones. This article explores Gutterville and Kaja'Coast, two key additions revealed through data mining.
Key Takeaways:
- Patch 11.1 adds Undermine, plus Gutterville and Kaja'Coast subzones.
- Gutterville, in the Ringing Deeps, features Excavation Site 9 and a corrupted area. It's likely a connection point to Undermine.
- Kaja'Coast, a Goblin camp near Zuldazar's Bilgewater Bonanza, also appears connected to Undermine.
Beyond Undermine's Gates:
While Undermine itself is a significant addition, data from Wowhead reveals at least two new subzones:
-
Gutterville: Situated in the southeastern Ringing Deeps, Gutterville's maroon coloration hints at Black Blood corruption. This subzone houses Excavation Site 9, one of the two new Delves in Patch 11.1. Its proximity strongly suggests it serves as an entrance to Undermine.
-
Kaja'Coast: Located in Zuldazar, near the Bilgewater Bonanza, this Goblin encampment is another potential access point to Undermine. It's speculated to be the location of the drill-like tram shown in the Warcraft Direct announcement.
New Locations in World of Warcraft Patch 11.1
- Undermine: The subterranean Goblin capital city.
- Gutterville: A subzone within the Ringing Deeps.
- Kaja'Coast: A Goblin camp in Zuldazar.
Slam Central Station and Further Connections:
The discovered map of Undermine reveals a central hub, Slam Central Station, with five visible terminals. Considering Gutterville and Kaja'Coast as two access points, this implies the possibility of three more locations on Azeroth receiving Goblin-themed additions in Patch 11.1.
Release and PTR Access:
While a precise release date remains unannounced, Patch 11.1 is expected in mid-to-late February. Early January will see the update hit the Public Test Realm (PTR), allowing players early access to explore these new areas.
