Two Maps, One Seamless World

For the first time ever, players can now travel freely between the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah (a separate purchase). The two massive regions have been merged into a single continuous experience, allowing players to explore both without starting a new character or choosing a map at launch.
Multiplayer servers can now support both maps simultaneously, dramatically expanding the playable world for those who own the Isle of Siptah expansion.
