It’s time for a brand new war to break out in World of Warcraft, with the announcement of the seventh expansion, Battle for Azeroth.
The battle against the Legion is now over, but it has most certainly left a mark. More importantly, the trust between the Alliance and the Horde is shattered, and Blizzard has unveiled the expansion to continue this narrative in the wake of a new devastating war.
Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime commented: “Conflict is at the heart of the Warcraft saga, and in Battle for Azeroth, tensions that have been simmering for a long time escalate into all-out war. World of Warcraft players are incredibly passionate about the characters and factions they identify with in the game, and this expansion will make them prouder than ever to declare their allegiance to the Horde or to the Alliance.”
The Battle for Azeroth sees the Burning Legion who has set off a number of drastic incidents which reignites the rivalry between the Alliance and the Horde. Azeroth’s heroes must set out on this dark journey in the wake of this warfare, and embark on a race to claim the mightiest of resources, as well as fighting on several fronts to decide who will take charge of Azeroth.
