Pre-made Groups in the Group Finder listings for Mythic dungeons, raids, or rated arenas will be open to both Horde and Alliance players, though the group leader may choose to restrict the listing to same-faction applicants if they wish.However, Guilds will remain single-faction, and random matchmade activities like Heroic dungeons, Skirmishes, or Random Battlegrounds will all remain same-faction as well.
Several older legacy instances, which have faction-specific components, will also be reworked to support the cross-faction parties.In a recent blog post, World Of Warcraft game director Ion Hazzikostas said, “At BlizzCon in 2019, when an attendee asked about cross-faction play, we responded at the time that ‘Alliance and Horde separation … is a pillar of what makes Warcraft, Warcraft.“But upon reflection, that’s an oversimplification: Alliance and Horde identity is what is fundamental to Warcraft.
