World Of Warcraft is building up steam for a really special year, and the highlight of the year is without a doubt the next expansion of the game via Battle For Azeroth. This expansion will build upon the events of Legion, and delve the land of Azeroth back into a conflict between the forces that were there since the game began: The Alliance and The Horde. The hype is palpable, and it’s about to get even bigger, for the game is available to pre-order in Europe.
You can pre-order Battle For Azeroth via the Battle.net shop, just be warned, there’s already a line waiting to get the title (over 5,000 at last count). So you know that this is easily a hyped expansion for World of Warcraft.
In fact, Blizzard even released a detailed synopsis for the expansion, check it out:
Azeroth paid a terrible price to end the apocalyptic march of the Legion’s crusade—but even as the world’s wounds are tended, it is the shattered trust between the Alliance and Horde that may prove the hardest to mend. In Battle for Azeroth, the fall of the Burning Legion sets off a series of disastrous incidents that reignites the conflict at the heart of the Warcraft saga. As a new age of warfare begins, Azeroth’s heroes must set out on a journey to recruit new allies, race to claim the world’s mightiest resources, and fight on several fronts to determine whether the Horde or Alliance will lead Azeroth into its uncertain future.
Battle For Azeroth will include new classes, a complete reworking of the class system, new lands to sail to in order to help your group, and so much more. Blizzard is truly channeling the essence of World of Warcraft for this expansion, and it’s going to be a thrill to play when it releases this year.
