Blizzard has unveiled exciting new details about the in-game housing system set to debut in the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion, *Midnight*. As part of the Worldsoul saga, which follows *The War Within*, *Midnight* promises a housing experience that exceeds many players' expectations with its advanced customization options.
A developer blog recently showcased in-game videos demonstrating the intricacies of furniture placement. The system employs a grid with automatic snapping, ensuring items align perfectly. Players can further personalize larger objects such as shelves or tables by adorning them with smaller accessories that remain securely attached during movement.
The housing system offers two distinct modes: Basic Mode, designed for easy organization, and Advanced Mode, catering to creative builders. In Advanced Mode, players have the freedom to rotate objects across all three axes and stack them innovatively, allowing for the creation of intricate and visually stunning interiors.

One of the standout features is the ability to scale objects, making the housing system adaptable to different character sizes. For example, gnomes can craft snug, cozy spaces, whereas larger races like tauren can design more expansive layouts. Additionally, certain pieces of furniture designed specifically for the housing system will allow for recoloring, although legacy items might not support this feature.
With *Midnight* still on the horizon, Blizzard is keeping the community engaged and enthusiastic by regularly sharing previews and updates on the game's future developments.
