Official statusUnannounced
The short version
No announcement. No release date. No reason to pretend otherwise.
Blizzard has not announced a product called Project Camelot. The public evidence currently consists of an encrypted WoW Dev 5 branch, third-party observations and an official BlizzCon schedule that does not name Camelot.
Observed
WoW Dev 5 is serving an encrypted 1.60.0.69698 build across the tracked regions.
Unconfirmed
No public Blizzard statement connects that branch to Classic+, features, testing or a release date.
