It's happening (.jpeg)! The Iron Horde is pouring into Azeroth through the Dark Portal, Warlords of Draenor is coming to World of Warcraft!
Well, we know it was coming — but the expansion is even more real than it was before!
Seeing as patch 6.0.2 launched today, you might want to know what major features are coming in the update. Here's what Blizzard highlighted:
- "Iron Horde Incursion" World Event: players looking to upset the Iron Horde invasion can journey to the Blasted Lands to face down the onslaught and venture into the revamped five-player version of the Upper Blackrock Spire dungeon
- New Character Models: several of the game's original races are new and improved, with increased resolution as well as updated animations and facial expressions
- Interface Improvements: questing is now easier than ever with an updated quest log and inventory changes, including a Toy Box for the fun items players acquire through their adventures
- Character and Class Changes: myriad character- and class-specific updates are now live, making this a great time for players to refamiliarize themselves with their characters ahead of the expansion's November 13 launch
What I'd like to note here is that the release of this patch signifies that there are many, many more character names available. If you haven't logged on since November 13, 2008 your character is now nameless.
Are you excited for Warlords of Draenor?
