With yesterday’s streaming, Blizzard announced Dragonflight, a new expansion for the legendary World of Warcraft, as well as the recent release of the Wrath of the Lich King add-on for players reliving their youth in the World of Warcraft Classic.
The promotional video featuring Dragonflight briefly returned to Azeroth’s past, followed by a story about how and why the dragons returned and sought the help of mortals to deal with the new plague that threatens this fantasy world.
As before, we have a new area ahead of us, Dragon Isles, which will be divided into five zones, and we will be able to cruise through them thanks to a new ability, kite riding. Dracthyr, a new playful race that can change dragons and human forms, will introduce us to them, and those who choose them will be able to play them exclusively as Evokers, a new class with two specializations.
As befits, the Dracthyri move in their special area at a slightly higher stage of development than others, and at some point swear allegiance to the Alliance or the Horde.
Among other news, the developers point out facilitated professions, a new system of specializations, an upgraded interface that can be edited arbitrarily, for which we have used some add-ons, and probably the biggest surprise is the talent that will be branched and according to the authors, will allow us to adjust style games we haven’t seen in World of Warcraft so far.
Along with the announcement, the official website has been opened where you can already sign up for the upcoming beta testing.
The same goes for World of Warcraft Classic: Wrath of the Lich King, a reissue of the expansion we played back in 2008 and by many represents the best period of World of Warcraft. We will briefly recall that the same as the main villain puts Lich King ruling in the far Northrend.
The aforementioned expansion introduces Death Knights into the story, the first heroic class to start at the 55th stage of development, in order to reach a new maximum, the 80th stage, as soon as possible.
With the new raids and dungeons, players will be able to choose a new profession, and the interesting thing is that the original option of the automatic search for dungeon groups was added in the original, but in this case, it will be absent, allegedly at the request of players. As in the case of Dragonflight, Wrath of the Lich King does not have a defined release time, but given the open beta registrations, we believe the same is very close.
