There are several new dungeons throughout Azeroth that are part ofThe Wrath of the Lich Kingexpansion, and the following are focused on those located on the new continent of Northrend. That’s why theCulling of Stratholme, the new five-player instance located in the Caverns of Time, a zone in old Azeroth, is left out.
15Utgarde Keep, Level 68
Located in the scenic reaches ofHowling Fjord, this isn’t only one of the first Northrend instances that most players encounter. It’s also the one that gets the most screenshots and could be one of the most dangerous to visit.
Reachingit without a flying mount, which most players don’t have yet, means fighting through a hostile Vykrul village.
14The Nexus, Level 68
The sheltered region at the center of the Borean Tundra is where players can find Coldarra, the home of the Blue Dragonflight and their aspect, Malygos. The enemies in this dungeon change depending on whether your character is Horde or Alliance but everyone is fighting for the dragons.
13Ajzol-Nerub, Level 70
A smaller dungeon that consists of three bosses, Ajzol-Nerub is tucked away in the center of the barren and windswept reaches of Dragonflight.

The dungeon is part of a larger complex that includes another five-player instanceand a raid. The same location also appeared in another game as the site of a great battle.
12Ahn’Kahet: The Old Kingdom, Level 71
Players who have experienced the oldWarcraftreal-time strategy games have already visited at least part of this mysterious kingdom. Arthas and his forces lay siege to Ahn’Kahet in one of theWarcraft 3expansions.
This time, it’s just a party of five instead of a whole army, versus five bosses and a vast horde of insects, cultists, and other horrors.
11Drak’Tharon Keep, Level 72
Of course, there would have to be an ancient troll-themed dungeon in the mix, and that would be Drak’Tharon Keep. Players traveling between Grizzly Hills and Zul’Drak can find its rugged yet majestic gates on the northern side of the border.
10The Violet Hold, Level 73
Located beneath the floating city of Dalaran, the Violet Hold is a one-room dungeon that hosts several enemies and bosses that the party has to defeat in succession.

8Gundrak, Level 73
Another instance that was built by the trolls of centuries past, Gundrak is also located in the zone of Zul-Drak. Gundrak recalls old-world dungeons like Sunken Temple and Maradon, with their two separate entrances and an interior puzzle to open the passage to the final boss.
