Summary
- WoW Patch 11.1 introduces new campsites for the character select screens.
- Four new campsites will be available to collect, each with specific unlock requirements.
- Players can preview and unlock campsites in the Collections pane for personalization.
World of Warcraft has given players a first look at campsites, collectible backgrounds they can use to customize their character select screens. Fans can look forward to collecting four new campsites in World of Warcraft Patch 11.1, with more planned to be released in future updates.
Recently, Blizzard revealed it would be adding new ways for players to personalize their Warband's character select screen. World of Warcraft Patch 11.1 introduces the ability to set up multiple camps for one’s characters, each of which can be customized with names and unlockable backgrounds.
Now that Patch 11.1 has made it to the World of Warcraft Public Test Realm, fans have gotten a closer look at this new system – including the first set of backgrounds and where they are obtained. In addition to Adventurer’s Rest, the name given to the original Warbands character selection screen, there are four new campsites to collect in Patch 11.1: Ohn’ahran Overlook, Cultists’ Quay, Freywold Spring, and Gallagio Grand Gallery. WoW content creator MrGM has already put out a useful video showing off most of these campsites, as well as how they are obtained.

The Ohn’ahran Overlook, featuring the Ohn’ahran Plains from Dragonflight, is obtained automatically by logging in after Patch 11.1. The Cultists’ Quay, located in the Nightfall Sanctum Delve in Hallowfall, is earned from the Delver’s Journey for Season 2. Meanwhile, the Freywold Spring from the village of the same name and the Gallagio Grand Gallery featured in World of Warcraft Patch 11.1’s new raid, Liberation of Undermine, are obtained by completing the All That Khaz and Racing to a Revolution meta-achievements respectively.
These campsites and their methods of acquisition can be found on a new tab in the Collections pane, easily allowing players to preview and unlock them. On the character select screen itself, campsites now have their own tab at the top, allowing fans to choose campsites for their characters – or even choose randomly between favorite backgrounds each time they log in.
These customizable character selection screens all build on the framework created by the Warbands system introduced in World of Warcraft: The War Within, proving Blizzard intends to keep innovating upon the feature in the future. Fans can look forward to unlocking campsites alongside mounts, pets, and other collectibles as more are added later on – and hopefully not only in new content, but in old areas, holiday events, the Trading Post, and even the cash shop.
