A. Once Cataclysm is marked live on all realms, simply exit out to the login screen (the one featuring Deathwing’s toothy grin) and log back in. This will provide you full access to the new content—including the goblin and worgen races and level 80-85 zones. If you’re concerned that you won’t know when to re-log, we’ve got you covered. After Cataclysm is marked live, if you’re still logged in and are playing from an upgraded client, you’ll be prompted with official in-game messaging that will instruct you to log out and then log back in.
