Whitemane's front page currently lists six realms in three states: Frostmourne, Gilneas and Maelstrom Online, Stormstout in Beta Online, and Sunwell Coming Soon.
Stormstout: MoP in beta
Stormstout is the network's Mists of Pandaria realm, and its status reads Beta Online. That is a playable beta rather than an announcement, though we have not created an account and cannot say what state the content is in.
A third-party hub describes it as a fresh blizzlike MoP realm with quality-of-life changes carried over from the network's other realms. That description is theirs, not verified first-party, and the only first-party fact we hold is the Beta Online status.
Sunwell: TBC coming soon
Sunwell is the Burning Crusade realm, status Coming Soon. No date is published on the front page. A coming-soon without a date is the category this tracker records as unverifiable rather than pending, and Sunwell sits in it until a date appears.
Frostmourne did 8,500
The network's own news states its Wrath Rebuffed realm opened September 19 with over 8,500 players online across the globe. That is a first-party launch figure, self-reported like all such numbers, and it makes Frostmourne one of the largest single-realm launches of the year on our tracker.
Our existing Frostmourne entry carries an older reading and will be refreshed on the next pass.
Why this matters at 30 days to Forever
Whitemane is expanding in two directions at once while Blizzard's launch approaches: backward into TBC and sideways into MoP, with a rebuilt Wrath realm already live. A network running Cataclysm Classic, Cataclysm, Wrath Rebuffed, MoP beta and TBC soon, simultaneously, is operating at a scale where any one realm's problems are cushioned by the others.
That cuts both ways for a reader choosing a realm. Depth of operation is evidence of competence and evidence of divided attention, and no front page tells you which one you are getting.
SOURCES: Whitemane's own front page and news feed, read October 5 2026 with a control domain probed in the same batch. Realm statuses, the 8,500 figure and the September 19 date are the project's own statements. The third-party hub description of Stormstout is labelled as theirs. We did not create an account and did not play. Related: our Whitemane network coverage, how we review a private server, and the grading scale.
