It was not destroyed and I believe we were told that we would get a chance to go again, and that it is only a matter of when.
What do you think would happen to justify us revisiting Kezan?
If Bilgewater Port was only a small section of Kezan, how big is it’s entirety?
Also, is Kezan neutral territory? I can’t imagine it would constitute as horde territory just because the bilgewater joined horde. Neutral all around makes sense to me.
My apologies if any of these questions have obvious answers, I tend to look over things by mistake. If there aren’t concrete answers, I would like to hear speculation as well

We actually have revisited it in BfA. The Motherlode dungeon is located on Kezan, it’s not around Zandalar. The island was damaged by the volcano and is also flooded with azerite. Which is why we had to take out the Venture Company mining it there.
It’s not really anyone’s territory right now since no one really lives there. The Bilgewater rebuilt in Azshara and haven’t seemed interested in going back.
I’m not sure we know its true size though. But looking at the map it seems the volcano takes up most of it with the Bilgewater Port on the northern coast. We haven’t actually seen a lot of it.
It was destroyed by an erupting volcano, just not completely.
I was aware of this, and I do enjoy the dungeon for this reason but I don’t really count it as going back ^^
Tbh I hope the map isn’t accurate just bc I want more to be there ahah
I seem to remember hearing in a q&a that it was not destroyed, but I am not entirely sure
Anybody who’s done the goblin starting area remembers the erupting volcano.
Yes Kajaro, but it did not destroy Kezan
Fair enough. 
There actually is or was a huge underground city on the island called the Undermine. Pretty much the goblin version of Gnomeregan/Mechagon. But no telling how that place fared with the eruption.
I share your desire to go back to Kezan and would like to catch up with the friends we made there.
Mechagon is the reason all of these questions came to mind, I feel like Undermine’s status, whatever it is, might serve as some kind of incentive to go to Kezan for some reason in the future 
Of course with the current narrative that would come out of nowhere

Maybe so, but Kezan turned into an azerite wasteland.
The entirety of Kezan?? I’m not sure we would know this given the Motherlode was a very small area compared to how big Kezan probably is
Plus they’ve had a while to rebuild, and are goblins

Psh you only need one reason! Just drop a sign in the cities saying there’s free loot in the Undermine. We’ll zip over there in record time to take it.
But I think the island itself is fine by now. It’s been five or six years. Eruptions happen, things will regrow. Volcanic islands tend to do that a lot.

I would zip over there if the sign said goblins existed on the island but I have a small bias
It’s true though I guess we wouldn’t really need much incentive to go there as we kind of have a rep ad adventurers hahh
Yeah this, I highly doubt the island has been reduced to nothing
Sadly, as far as we know, only the Venture Company occupies Kezan now. The Bilgewater and Steemweedle cartels jumped ship with Gallywix back in Cata.
I do not remember the steamwheedle cartel being involved in this storyline, it all takes place in bilgewater port with the bilgewater cartel. I don’t think they ever said what the steamwheedle cartel was doing at that time? And I usually guess that Kezan is where the mysterious trade prince of that cartel even is located.
Slightly unrelated but I also find it hard to believe there are only 3 cartels lol
I’m hoping that the huge deposits of Azerite on Kezan lead to us going back there and finally seeing the Undermine.

I for one would LOVE more Goblin lore. they are one of my favourite races.
Hopefully, when they get heritage armour, they get a nice lore boost.
Honestly Kezan is “neutral” for the fact of no politics and factions until you finish the zone. Sure you see Alliance and Horde but all you do is the bare minimum for interactions with them up until you end up leaving.
Kezan is still there despite the eruption of the volcano. But even then, you should be able to return imo. Motherload/Mechagon kind of remind me of this as well. I’d honestly roll a Goblin if we could go back for some RnR
I could see it being part of the gilgoblin recruitment scenario (assuming they are an allied race)
I can also see it being the staging point for a patch. Maybe not the focus like mechagon, but like the horde uses kezan to attack the insert enemy here and it is used as out “capital” for the patch.

According to Wowpedia:
At BlizzCon 2010, Alex Afrasiabi said that the goblin starting zone was only “a small segment of the actual whole’ of Kezan”, and that the goblins “did want to go back to Undermine and the other goblin land holdings, just a question of when.”
