The Undermine in World of Warcraft is the capital city of the Bilgewater Cartel goblins, located in Kezan (their original homeland before it was destroyed by a volcanic eruption). However, in the game, the Undermine itself has never been fully accessible as a playable zone, though it has been referenced in lore, books, and quests. Key Details About the Undermine: Lore & Background - The Undermine is a vast underground city built beneath Kezan, serving as the economic and political hub of the goblin trade empires. - It was ruled by the Trade Princes of the Bilgewater Cartel (and other cartels) before Deathwing's Cataclysm forced the goblins to flee. - Known for its cutthroat capitalism, shady deals, and explosive engineering. In-Game References - Mentioned in World of Warcraft: Cataclysm when the Bilgewater goblins become a playable Horde race. - Appears in the Warcraft novel "The Shattering: Prelude to Cataclysm" by Christie Golden. - Some quests (particularly goblin-themed ones) reference trade deals, shipments, or schemes tied to the Undermine. Possible Future Content? - Players have long speculated that Blizzard might one day open the Undermine as a raid, dungeon, or city hub, but so far, it remains unexplored in-game. - With the return of Kezan in Dragonflight (Patch 10.2.5), some hope the Undermine could eventually be added. Trivia: The name "Undermine" is a punboth a literal underground city and a nod to the goblins' tendency to "undermine" rivals. The goblin starting zone in Cataclysm begins with players escaping Kezan's destruction, but the Undermine itself is not seen.
