Blizzard are allowing WoW Classic players to access the test realms (PTRs) for Phase 4 of the game, just prior to its deployment. New features include the Zul'Gurub raid and the Arathi Battlefield. With the upcoming deployment of Phase Four of the WoW Classic Progressive Content Deployment, Blizzard has chosen to offer players the ability to access test realms (PTRs). This means that you now have the ability to install these directly from the Battle.net launcher and try out the content for the next content update.Ideally, the PTR is designed to allow players to let Blizzard know if they have any issues with the new content in a given patch before it is deployed.

Players wishing to play on General Test Field (PTR) must first install it through Battle.net Launcher. This is done by opening the World of Warcraft tab, switching to the Version menu, and selecting PTR: World of Warcraft: Classic.

Fortunately, there is no need to completely reinstall the game in order to play PTR, and the download of WoW Classic Test Realm is only 500 MB. After installation, players should play the game and choose your preferred server type, either Player vs Environment or Player vs Player. This will have the same impact on playing in Vanilla WoW Classic. If you want to Buy Vanilla WoW Gold, we 5mmo.com can give you a very low price, welcome to buy.

Once players have picked a server, they need to choose whether they want to create a new character or copy one from the vanilla game. It's worth noting that a copied character will not affect the character it is cloned from on the live servers, and anything done on the PTR will not transfer over. Creating a character follows the same process as vanilla WoW Classic: choosing a race, sex, class, appearance, and name.

Players who'd prefer to play with their own Retail World of Warcraft character will need to click the Copy Character option instead of creating one. Then, select the Region that the desired character is currently in, and simply choose them from a list of names. There are some limitations to this: characters below level 10 can't be copied, and the WoW Classic data may be incorrectly copied. This can be corrected by clicking on Copy Data in the Launcher.
