The Drowned City — announced levels 35–40.[1] Blizzard’s preview connects this destination with naga and pirates.[2]
Availability
No opening of this later-level dungeon was verified in the written sources reviewed on 27 September 2026. See Beta guide for the documented test scope. The announced level band is not a confirmed minimum entry requirement.
Setting and access
Wowhead places the troll ruins offshore from Stranglethorn.[3] An offshore setting does not by itself establish an underwater route, swimming requirement, entrance coordinates or transport method. Those details await a Forever-specific source.
Beta client evidence
No named instance-map row for this dungeon was found in the reviewed Map export.[4] This limited result does not establish why data is absent, whether it is encrypted, or when the dungeon will open.
Legacy connection
The client places this dungeon under Experienced Spelunker in the Legacy completion criteria (row 230770).[5] Completion rewards and availability should be checked in the active build.
Rewards
No item sources have been documented for this dungeon yet. This is a gap in the wiki, not a claim that the dungeon has no loot.
See Dungeon loot for the evidence needed to connect an item to its source; compare level bands in Dungeons.

Sources and scope
The level band comes from Blizzard’s announcement. Client records are from the Forever beta build stated above; a record’s presence does not demonstrate live availability. No entrance, strategy, drop rate or quest chain is inferred from another WoW edition.
