When Burning Crusade Classic launches later this year, every player will decide if they want to continue onto The Burning Crusade era or stay in the Classic era, where the level cap is 60. It's your choice which one you want to play on. See, Burning Crusade Classic and WoW Classic (which recreates WoW as it existed in 2006) will actually be two separate games. This is where it gets slightly complicated. So how does this work? What if I like WoW Classic? Horde players can play paladins and Alliance players can play shamans.A much more focused PVP experience with the addition of arenas.A whole new continent to explore with some gorgeous and memorable areas.But if you're already playing WoW Classic and having fun, Burning Crusade Classic is going to be amazing. Classic is about stepping back in time, and, just like WoW Classic, many of Burning Crusade's rough edges will be what people love the most about it. It's a very different game to modern WoW, but it also does a much better job of forcing players to socialize and cooperate. Like Classic, it's a relic of a different time when MMOs were a lot less accessible and a lot more demanding of your spare time. By today's standards, I'd actually rate The Burning Crusade as WoW's worst expansion. The Burning Crusade was WoW's first-ever expansion, so obviously that's a big deal. There's also going to be a 15th anniversary collector's edition of the game released 8th October, and, keep it cool Bertie, IT'S GOT A GIANT RAGNAROS STATUE IN IT! I have a thing about Ragnaros, in case you didn't know.So, what's the deal with The Burning Crusade? Beat it, and you'll earn the Obsidian Worldbreaker mount, styled to look like Deathwing.

There's going to be a series of in-game activities in current expansion Battle for Azeroth, culminating in a 25-player raid which will apparently put you up against some of the most iconic bosses from throughout the game's history. This year is a big year for World of Warcraft, it's 15th, and Blizzard is doing a few things to celebrate. Oli summed it all up when he played the World of Warcraft Classic demo last autumn. There's more room to breathe - for better and worse. He's right about one thing: WOW Classic is a very different experience from present day WOW. We can't wait to get reacquainted with this dangerous, demanding, and rewarding world with all of our friends, new and old." The World of Warcraft Classic experience is very different from the Azeroth we know today, but we love it for what it is and what it stands for. It taught us many things about ourselves as a developer and publisher, and about the global community of players that we feel honored to be a part of. "That early experience was incredibly important to Blizzard.
Azeroth has always been a wondrous and deadly place, and it was especially so at the time of WoW's launch, when everyone was discovering its vistas and exploring its dungeons for the first time - all while helping and supporting the company as everyone here worked through the many technical struggles of hosting a game of this size. "Like many of our players, everyone at Blizzard was fueled by the excitement of seeing the world of Azeroth from the ground level, through the eyes of the heroes inhabiting and fighting over it. A tornado literally tore the roof off one of the game's data centers during the early days of testing - but Blizzard was fortunate to have hundreds, and then thousands, and then millions of people around the world cheering our developers on. Here's what Brack said in a press release today: "Building and launching World of Warcraft back in 2004 was immensely challenging.
And then there was that infamous comment made by now-Blizzard-president J Allen Brack, who said, in reference to people wanting Classic, "You think you do but you don't." (He has since joked about it.) Oh my god it's a Ragnaros statue! This is the 15th anniversary edition coming 8th October for £90. Maybe Blizzard was planning Classic, maybe not, but it wasn't until unofficial WOW legacy projects blew up in popularity, Blizzard really seemed to take note. It's like a dream come true!īut it's been a fraught old journey getting it at all.

Specifically, Classic goes back to the Drums of War patch (1.12) of August 2006, back when opening the gates of Ahn'Qiraj was a server-wide, Horde and Alliance effort, and when 40-person raids like Molten Core were all the rage.
