Beta coming back

The stress test had wrapped up, and the WoW Forever beta was gradually returning when Blizzard reported a snag in bringing it back online. The team said it was working to restore access.[1]

If the update has not appeared, the report says fully exiting the Battle.net desktop app can force it to happen manually and may get the update sooner. The beta was extended through Friday, rather than ending on the day it was originally scheduled to close.[1]

What to expect

The supplied update describes a temporary restoration issue, not a change to beta content. It gives no further detail about the cause or a precise time for full access.[1]

TL;DR

  • Blizzard said it was working to restore the beta after a snag during reopening.[1]
  • Fully exiting the Battle.net desktop app may prompt the update sooner.[1]
  • The beta's end was extended through Friday after it was initially scheduled to end on the day of the report.[1]
