When the Horde and Alliance forces go through the Dark Portal into the Tanaan Jungle, sensed Ga'nar and sent adventurers to release him. He was found chained to an outhouse. After being freed by adventurers he joins the rest of the Alliance and Horde forces in fighting the Iron Horde and escaping from the Tanaan Jungle. When the Dark Portal is destroyed, he runs to the boats only to challenge Warchief Hellscream to duel. Drek'Thar however pushed him back. He joins the Horde adventurers on the boat to Frostfire Ridge and navigates the boat.
Ga'nar joins up with his brother and shortly after the Horde establishes an outpost, Ga'nar is found riding mounted with a retinue of Frostwolf soldiers towards Bladespire Citadel, despite Durotan's wishes to be more cautious.

There, fuelled by his recent success, he attempts to take over the role of chieftain by declaring a Mak'gora. Durotan drops his axe, exclaiming that Ga'nar would have to kill his own brother in cold blood if he wishes to become the Frostwolf chieftain. After hesitating for a few moments, Ga'nar bows down and declares his loyalty once more to Durotan. 
Ga'nar, Durotan, and the Horde commander face off with the Iron Wolf in where it is revealed that the Iron Wolf is, in fact, Ga'nar and Durotan's eldest brother Fenris who abandoned the Frostwolf Clan, believing that they should subjugate beasts instead of bonding with them.The Iron Wolf (quest) It is Fenris is slain, but the Iron Horde still approaches from Thunder Pass to the east. Ga'nar joins his clan in defending the pass in The Battle of Thunder Pass. The Frostwolves defend the pass alongside their Horde allies, but the assault rapidly becomes overwhelming. As the Horde is pushed back and channels a massive lightning spell to seal the pass, Ga'nar stays behind to buy the farseer enough time to complete the spell, having fully acknowledged that Durotan has become a better leader than he ever could have. The lone Frostwolf warrior charges into the fray, slaying numerous enemies as Drek'thar completes the spell and collapses the pass. About to die, Ga'nar lets loose a mighty "LOK'TAR!" before dying under the rubble, having died a hero's death.The Battle of Thunder Pass (quest)
After the battle, his wolf companion Snowfury tries to dig at the rubble sensing his master.

==Notes and trivia==
*Although he is the older brother of Durotan, Durotan became chieftain of the clan instead of him when Garad died. The reason for this is that Garad chose Durotan because Ga'nar was hot-headed.The Characters of Warcraft/Durotan
*Garad being alive around the time of the Iron Horde's formation is a difference between the alternate and main universes.
*His pissed quotes is a direct quote from the famous ad-libbed scene from , where the main character talks to himself in the mirror as if he's threatening someone - except Ga'nar isn't just talking to the mirror.
*In WoD's Blizzcon, when introducing Frostfire Ridge, a map with quest objectives was shown and Ga'nar was mentioned as one of them, making it the second mention - besides the main-universe's mention in the Ultimate Visual Guide - prior his direct appearance in the game itself.
*Ga'nar is voiced by Jamieson Price.Video Games: World of Warcraft
*Unused strings suggest that Ga'nar and some others (Vragor, Durok, Exile Outrider, Frostwolf Exile, Patchfur Yapper) were initially planned to have been exiled.Wowhead
