<div class="fw-notice">'''Announcement and preview snapshot · 16 September 2026.''' Source checked; not verified in-game. Racial effects and the roster may change during beta.</div>

'''Race and class combinations''' collects the pinned preview roster and marks combinations explicitly named by Blizzard. It does not fill gaps by copying Classic’s character-creation rules.<ref name="preview">Chris Baldwin, [https://talentsforever.com/ Talents Forever], [https://talentsforever.com/data.json CC BY 4.0 data export], snapshot 16 September 2026. Community transcription of BlizzCon demo footage and slides; checked 16 September 2026. Adapted and summarized for this guide. See [[Project:Talent data]] for evidence labels and attribution.</ref>

== How to read the matrix ==
* '''A''': explicitly announced by Blizzard.
* '''P''': listed in the 16 September community preview export; not independently confirmed here in a playable build.
* '''?''': not listed in this snapshot. This is not proof that the combination will be unavailable at launch.

Blizzard names Gnome Priest, Human Hunter, Dwarf Shaman, Orc Mage, Troll Warlock, and Undead Paladin as additions. Skyborne share Warrior, Hunter, Rogue, and Druid; Alliance adds Mage and Horde adds Shaman.<ref name="announced">Blizzard Entertainment, [https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/news/24303313 Deep Dive recap], 13 September 2026, and [https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/news/24303862/world-of-warcraft-forever-whats-next-panel-recap What’s Next recap], 12 September 2026.

== Choose a class, then a race ==
These lists repeat only positive entries from the matrix so they are easy to scan on a phone. Read [[Races]] for the racial previews and [[Classes]] for class guides.

=== Warrior ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Human]], [[Dwarf]], [[Night Elf]], [[Gnome]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (High Order)]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Orc]], [[Undead]], [[Tauren]], [[Troll]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (Windshaper)]].

=== Paladin ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Human]], [[Dwarf]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Undead]].

=== Hunter ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Human]], [[Dwarf]], [[Night Elf]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (High Order)]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Orc]], [[Tauren]], [[Troll]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (Windshaper)]].

=== Rogue ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Human]], [[Dwarf]], [[Night Elf]], [[Gnome]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (High Order)]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Orc]], [[Undead]], [[Troll]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (Windshaper)]].

=== Priest ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Human]], [[Dwarf]], [[Night Elf]], [[Gnome]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Undead]], [[Troll]].

=== Shaman ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Dwarf]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Orc]], [[Tauren]], [[Troll]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (Windshaper)]].

=== Mage ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Human]], [[Gnome]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (High Order)]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Orc]], [[Undead]], [[Troll]].

=== Warlock ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Human]], [[Gnome]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Orc]], [[Undead]], [[Troll]].

=== Druid ===
* '''Alliance:''' [[Night Elf]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (High Order)]].
* '''Horde:''' [[Tauren]], [[Skyborne|Skyborne (Windshaper)]].

== What the matrix does not establish ==
A listed combination does not establish its starting route, racial spell ranks, trainer locations, or performance. The preview contains faction-specific Skyborne variants; it should not be reduced to one faction-neutral class list. For a beta correction, capture the character-creation options together with the build and faction.
