Blizzard has unveiled exciting details about the upcoming in-game housing system in *World of Warcraft: Midnight*. Although the expansion won't hit the servers until after *The War Within* as part of the Worldsoul saga, the early previews have sparked considerable anticipation among players due to the promised depth of customization.
A recent developer blog showcased in-game videos illustrating the functionality of furniture placement. The system employs a grid layout with an automatic snapping feature, making it easy to arrange items. Additionally, players can enhance larger objects like shelves or tables by adding smaller accessories that remain attached even when the main item is repositioned.
The housing system offers two distinct modes: a Basic Mode for those who prefer a simpler setup, and an Advanced Mode tailored for creative enthusiasts. In Advanced Mode, users have the freedom to rotate objects across all three axes and stack them in innovative ways, allowing for the creation of intricate and visually appealing interiors.

Another noteworthy feature is the ability to scale objects, catering to the varying sizes of different characters. This means gnomes can craft cozy nooks, while larger races like tauren can design more expansive living areas. Some new furniture pieces designed for this system will also support recoloring, although this feature may not extend to legacy items.
With *Midnight* still on the horizon, Blizzard keeps the community buzzing with continuous teasers of the upcoming content, maintaining high levels of excitement and engagement among players eager for future updates.
