- Players with an existing compatible WoW client
- Worth noticing
- The launcher says it keeps everything in one folder and that its updates do not touch character data.
Field notes
The Windows release is listed as version 1.8.3 for 64-bit Windows 10 or 11, with source linked from the page and an AGPL-3-or-later license stated. For each selected realm, the launcher checks the client version; its first Start builds the world and extracts map data, which the page describes as a one-time wait. Classic through Mists of Pandaria and Shadowlands are marked ready, while six other eras are marked not yet.
