• Battle for Azeroth releases on August 14th

    Battle for Azeroth is set to release on August 14th!

    During a recent press release Blizzard announced the release date along with some new information on the new expansion.

    The most important bits of the presentations follow:

    • Battle for Azeroth will release on August 14, 2018.
    • Dark Iron Dwarves and Mag'har Orcs will be the first two new Allied Races. Play through the War Campaign at release and unlock them.
    • Kul'Tiran and Zandalari Trolls will come later in the expansion.
    • New short animated films telling the backstory of the Burning of Teldrassil, in similar style of the Lords of War series released alongside Warlords of Draenor.
    • The pre-expansion patch will include skirmishes, story quest and other content telling the backstory of the Burning of Teldrassil.


    Blizzard also released a new trailer showing all new in-game footage, which you can view below:



    In short, nothing groundbreaking with the exception of the long awaited release date. This expansion will however be the expansion released earliest in the year since the Burning Crusade, beating Legion's release by a whopping 16 days! That could also mean that the beta will begin earlier this year, so make sure you're signed up!
