Huge changes are coming to World of Warcraft; and like any game that's existed for over a decade, change can be scary. Or downright buggy. A lot of players are hoping that's not the case when the Shadowlands pre-expansion patch hits, i...

[Update: The mount has been chosen! It's going to be the Wandering Ancient, which is described as a "large and leafy mount." Every active Shadowlands player will get the mount in the first quarter of 2021.] World of Warcraft mount...

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands is out on October 27, and in true MMO fashion, Blizzard is already prepping folks for the next big thing: the first raid. As is customary with WoW, its inaugural raid will debut a bit after the launch of ...

Yesterday Blizzard finally revealed the World of Warcraft: Shadowlands release date: October 27. But it wasn't all they gave us. A new short is also primed and ready to watch, and it centers on some extremely crucial lore figures as we...

Did you expect to spend Halloween playing World of Warcraft: Shadowlands? During the slow-moving Gamescom: Opening Night Live stream, Blizzard announced an October 27 release for Shadowlands after dumping a ton of cool Uther lore into an a...

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands is still coming "this fall," and it'll bring hundreds of hours of extra stuff to do. While WoW players are probably champing at the bit to see if the story is any good (knock on wood), for the meantime we...

We're all set to visit the new zones in World of Warcraft's Shadowlands expansion "this fall," but before then, Blizzard is keying things up with another novel: the physical edition was released yesterday. This one is appropriately tit...

World of Warcraft expansions can be like Star Trek movies: every other one nails it, at least in the eyes of the community. While I adored many aspects of Battle for Azeroth, it was one of Blizzard's most heavily criticized expansions yet, ...

Today on Blizzard's World of Warcraft: Shadowlands stream (one of many summer individual game streams), the company revealed that the upcoming expansion will not be delayed. Hopefully these devs are dealing with a decreased stress load...

Blizzard is slowly giving us a glimpse at the new covenant system in World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, which lets you pledge your allegiance to a lore-centric group in the new expansion. We've already seen the others (like the vampiric V...

[Update: Blizzard has postponed the June 9 World of Warcraft: Shadowlands stream until a later date. "More important voices than ours need to be heard, and now is the time to listen," the company said.] Although the inevitable news came rec...

Although "darkened neon purple and blue" is a highly popular aesthetic in World of Warcraft, I can't get enough of it. Zangarmarsh, Azsuna, Netherstorm: take your pick. Now, Ardenweald will join that list when the upcoming Shadowlands&...

The story of World of Warcraft marches ever on, into its inevitable....conclusion? When will World of Warcraft "end" anyway? And will Activision give it the chance to bow out gracefully after all these years if the subscriber base starts to...

I can map out most of World of Warcraft, from the Vanilla era to the present, in my head. Some zones are more memorable than others, but I've spent so much time in that world that it's like a second home to me. That's partially why the...

Pokemon Sword and Shield still has some life in it yet with the upcoming expansion, but World of Warcraft is also getting in on the pet battling fun. As part of the "Bonus Event" system to keep people interested until the Sha...

With everyone packed-in due to the pandemic with nothing to do and plenty of competing products to choose from, Blizzard has been rolling out promotions with various titles to try to keep people interested. Heroes of the Storm had a ti...

I've probably spent as much time in Arathi Basin, digitally, as I have in some real-life locales. I'll probably add to that running count a bit now that the battleground just hit WoW: Classic. Just in case you haven't played WoW, Arathi Bas...

Everyone who played Vanilla WoW remembers Blackwing Lair. Maybe you didn't actually go in because you weren't lucky enough to wrangle 39 other people or didn't have the time: but you probably remember when it came out and the insane ri...

Activision has released Blizzard's financial data, and it kind of hints at what's to come for the company in addition to shedding some light on how their 2019 went. The big win? World of Warcraft Classic is a hit, and according to Acti...

Battle for Azeroth has been one of the most contentious World of Warcraft expansions in years, especially since it followed the near-unanimously praised Legion. While debate can rage on for decades to come in regards to its place in the exp...

World of Warcraft Classic is clinging to the past (admirably, I should say), but Battle for Azeroth is moving forward, for better or worse. But before Sylvanas becomes one of the most powerful characters in the current WoW un...

While not being able to server transfer initially lent credence to the whole authentic feel of World of Warcraft: Classic, it had to come eventually. The fact is WoW Classic demands a ton of time from players, so being able to transfer...

The time has come for the post-opener panels for more granular information for the projects unveiled at BlizzCon this year, and that includes a deep dive into World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, the next expansion. Due sometime in 2020 (likely ...

It wouldn't be BlizzCon without wild CG trailers. During this morning's opener, Blizzard offered a first – well, first non-leaked – glimpse at World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, the forthcoming expansion. "There must always be a Li...
