Mount Hyjal and Riverglades: two more announced new zones (Icy Veins, Wikipedia).

The raids

The Barrow Deeps: a 10-player raid (Warcraft Wiki, Icy Veins).
Hyjal Summit: a 20-player raid (Warcraft Wiki, Icy Veins).
Onyxia's Lair: a 40-player raid, named in the December 9, 2026 unlock (Icy Veins).

The schedule for the later raids, in spring and summer 2027, is on the Release page.

During the beta

The beta capped at level 20 in the first week, then at level 30. It let you test Zephras Isle and the low-level dungeons, but not the climb to 60.
