WoW Forever Spotlights Undead Paladin in New Video

World of Warcraft Forever's latest video highlights the Undead Paladin and other new class combos coming with the 'Classic Plus' version.
Did you catch the latest World of Warcraft Forever video? If not, you might have missed Blizzard putting the spotlight on one very specific new combo: the Undead Paladin.
As the source notes, World of Warcraft Forever is adding six new class/race combos with its "Classic Plus" version. But among all of them, the Undead Paladin is clearly getting the star treatment. It's not just one of six โ it's the one Blizzard seems to be pushing hardest.
Why? For starters, the Undead Paladin gets its own backstory. That lore comes courtesy of the new Warcraft III: Forsaken Kingdom DLC, which launched just this past month. So if you're a fan of deep Warcraft lore, this combo isn't just a gameplay tweak โ it's tied directly into a fresh narrative drop.
Blizzard hasn't stopped at lore, either. The latest video from the World of Warcraft Forever team promotes the Undead Paladin alongside the other new class combos, making it clear which one they want you to be most excited about. It's a smart move: the Forsaken have long been a fan-favorite faction, and giving them a Paladin option is the kind of shake-up that gets people talking.
For players, this means more than just a new button to press. The six new combos are part of the broader "Classic Plus" direction for World of Warcraft Forever, which aims to mix classic feels with new twists. The Undead Paladin, in particular, comes with that extra story hook from the Forsaken Kingdom DLC, so you'll have both gameplay and lore reasons to give it a try.
Of course, we still don't know every detail about how these combos will perform or when exactly they'll land beyond what's been shown. But the video makes one thing clear: if you're rolling a new character in WoW Forever, the Undead Paladin is the one Blizzard wants on your radar.
What do you think โ will you be leveling an Undead Paladin when Classic Plus arrives, or are you sticking with another combo? Let us know!
