Blizzard Confirms – There Will NOT Be an Official Fresh Season of Discovery

After a new Season of Discovery build was found, the community began to speculate whether this could be new content, a fresh SoD server, or just some backend fixes. While we're still not sure exactly what Patch 1.15.9 is, WoW Classic Developer, Josh Greenfield, confirmed that Blizzard will not be hosting an official Fresh Season of Discovery server.

SoD Community Fresh Event (EU) SoD Community Fresh Event (NA)

There will be no fresh SoD.

"Just open a new server" is not as trivial as most people think it is. It requires many teams and a large portion of the Classic team to make that happen. Then there's an ongoing effort to manage each phase as it rolls out. With other things we have going on, that's a distraction we can't afford.

I hate to come in and definitively say things like this but as you say, it would suck to NOT play this current revival in the vain hope some fresh realm will spin up and yeah, that just isn't happening right now. While I obviously love SoD and I'm very excited about the current event that's happening, it would be irresponsible for us to split our time on this right now.

Thanks for asking though. See you guys at Blizzcon!

While this may be sad news for some, there are several Community Fresh events that are happening on both EU and NA servers. If you missed out on the original release of Season of Discovery, or you're just looking for something to play ahead of BlizzCon in September, now might be the best time to jump back into SoD, as many guilds just progressed to Phase 2 earlier today,
