When World of Warcraft Cataclysm goes live in 2010, likely near the end of the year to cash in on the Holiday season, there will be a slew of new content, ranging from the complete revamp of the early game content for anyone who wants to level an alt (or a new Goblin or Worgen character), but also in the form of new and revamped Level 80+ dungeons and raids.

These new dungeons are going to be opened in the 7 different new zones that are being attached to Azeroth when the Cataclysm tears the old continent apart. What is going to be most interesting is the advent of new content in old dungeons. We’ve already seen this a few times now, with Naxxramas and the soon to be released Onyxia revamp.

However, this will be the first time we see normal 5 man dungeons revamped at the level cap for Heroic runs with The Deadmines and Shadowfang Keep. While it remains to be seen whether or not new instances will be added anywhere else in the game, you can rest assured that there is currently a game wide rush on to get new players as high in level as possible so that when the new content hits, they can reach the end of the new content faster than anyone else.

All the New Cataclysm Dungeons

The new Cataclysm dungeons will include the following locations, including the two heroic revamps of classic content:

Grim Batol: Level 85.

Skywall: Level 80-82.

Abyssal Maw: Two Instances – Level 80-83 and Level 82-84.

Deepholm: Level 80-83.

Uldum: Two Instances – Level 83-84 and Level 85

Blackrock Caverns – Level 85 Instance (new wing in Blackfathom Depths)

Shadowfang Keep – Level 85 Heroic Revamp

The Deadmines – Level 85 Heroic Revamp

The New Cataclysm Raids

The big question on everyone’s mind though is not about the 5 man dungeons – while everyone enjoys the lower level content, many people are done with it in a few weeks. What people really want to know about is what new raids will be added at Level 85. Already, Blizzard has said they will be offering more raiding options than ever before in an expansion. This means we’ll get at least 5 raids – but will they be short and sweet like The Obsidian Sanctum, or will they be epic in size like Naxxramas (even if it was a revamp).

This is the big question and probably one that will ultimately help decide how long we have to wait until the new content hits the servers.
