After months of development and real-world testing with RETRY Guild, we're excited to announce the WRS alpha release timeline and what you can expect from our raid management platform.
What is WRS?
Warcraft Raiding Studio (WRS) is a comprehensive raid management platform designed by raiders, for raiders. Built from 10 years of cutting-edge progression experience with RETRY Guild, WRS addresses the real challenges that mythic raid teams face every tier.
Alpha Features
The alpha release will include core functionality that we've validated through actual progression raids:
- Roster Management: Build and manage raid compositions with real-time class/spec availability
- Strategy Planning: Create, share, and iterate on boss strategies with your team
- Assignment Tracking: Coordinate raid assignments, cooldowns, and responsibilities
- Performance Analytics: Track progress and identify improvement opportunities
Testing with RETRY
Every feature in WRS has been tested in RETRY's actual mythic progression. This isn't theoretical software—it's battle-tested in the most demanding raiding environment. When RETRY pulls a boss, WRS is there tracking assignments, coordinating cooldowns, and helping the raid lead make real-time decisions.
Timeline
Alpha access will begin in January 2026, starting with our guild partners and early access applicants. We're taking a measured approach to ensure the platform meets the high standards our community expects.
Early Access
Interested in alpha access? Guild partners and select testers will get early invitations. Learn about partnership opportunities.
What's Next?
Following the alpha release, we'll iterate based on feedback from our testing guilds. Beta access will expand to additional partners, with general availability planned for later in 2026.
