Blizzard has unveiled exciting details about the upcoming in-game housing system in *World of Warcraft: Midnight*. While the expansion is slated to launch post-*The War Within* as part of the Worldsoul saga, early previews indicate a level of customization that exceeds many players' expectations.
A recent developer blog included in-game videos showcasing the intricacies of furniture placement. The system utilizes a grid for alignment, with automatic snapping features to ensure items fit seamlessly. Players can also decorate larger objects, such as shelves and tables, with smaller accessories that remain attached even when the larger items are repositioned.
The housing system offers two distinct modes: a Basic Mode designed for easy organization and an Advanced Mode tailored for creative builders. In Advanced Mode, players gain the ability to rotate objects along all three axes and stack them in innovative ways, allowing for the creation of intricate and visually appealing interiors.

Another significant feature is the option to scale objects, which caters to different character sizes. This means that smaller races like gnomes can create more intimate spaces, while larger races such as tauren can design more expansive layouts. Additionally, some furniture pieces specifically designed for the housing system will support recoloring, although legacy assets might not include this feature.
With *Midnight* still months away, Blizzard is keeping the community engaged and eager by regularly teasing upcoming content and updates, ensuring a high level of excitement and anticipation for what's to come.
