Horrific Visions Return in World Of Warcraft’s May 20 Update

We already covered April’s massive update for World of Warcraft, but Blizzard isn’t slowing down. Starting the week of May 20, players can dive into Horrific Visions Revisited—a full-blown return to the madness of N’Zoth’s corrupted Stormwind and Orgrimmar.

This time around, players will once again navigate twisted versions of two iconic cities, complete objectives, and try not to completely lose their minds. Literally. Sanity is back as a mechanic, and if you let it drop? Well, let’s just say your wipe count might rival your eighth-grade math test scores.

Go Solo or Bring Backup

Whether you’re the lone-wolf type or someone who knows better than to go in alone, you’ve got options. Players can tackle these visions solo, group up with friends, or bring along a new Soridormi construct companion. This handy ally can be summoned in tank, DPS, or healer form—plus, bonus—they’re immune to sanity loss. Lucky them.

So if you need that one friend who never dies and never complains, this NPC’s got your back.

Difficulty Settings and Mask Mechanics Return

Looking for an extra challenge? Higher difficulties are available for players chasing Heroic-level gear and achievement bragging rights. The popular World of Warcraft Horrific Vision masks are also making a comeback. These modifiers crank the difficulty while boosting your rewards.

Returning masks include:

• Mask of Pain
  
• Mask of the Long Night
  
• Mask of the Burned Bridge
  
• Mask of the Daredevil
• Mask of Dark Imagination
  

But that’s not all—three new masks are entering the fray:

• Mask of Vengeance
  
• Mask of Multitudes
  
• Mask of Nemesis
  

It’s all about risk and reward—and whether you’ve got the patience to juggle sanity while a thousand tentacles try to end your run.

New Currency, New Loot

With this World of Warcraft update comes a new in-game currency: Displaced Corrupted Mementos. Sounds like something your ex left behind, but no—this is how you’ll unlock both new and legacy rewards tied to Horrific Visions.

Mounts, toys, transmogs, weapon enchantments, and more are on the table. Whether you’re farming with your new max-level alt or jumping into this content for the first time, there’s plenty to grind for.

Final Thoughts

Horrific Visions Revisited adds a fun dose of chaos to World of Warcraft’s current content pool. It’s nostalgic, challenging, and somehow still finds new ways to break your brain. Whether you’re returning for rewards or testing your sanity limits, there’s no better time to face N’Zoth’s twisted cities once again.
