After more than a decade, World of Warcraft still commands one hell of a dedicated fanbase. Clearly, this is one franchise with a dedicated fanbase. And sexy CGI trailers for regular expansions. And speaking of the two, here’s the latest trailer for the upcoming World of Warcraft: Legion. FOR THE HORDE!
Blizzard says that World of Warcraft: Legion will be released next year on September 21, with the expansion sporting such features as:

- Artifact weapons which unlock extra abilities, traits and can be customised for your character.
- A new land to explore, the Broken Isles
- An instant boost to level 100 for pre-orders
- The Order Hall, which will allow you to form a team of NPCs to assist you in battle
- A PvP honour system, which features combat in new arenas and battlegrounds
World of Warcraft: Legion will also be available in various retail flavours. The standard edition which has a US RRP of $49.99, and the deluxe edition at $69.99 which contains the following extras that stretches across other Blizzard games:

A proper collector’s edition will also be sold ($89.99), which includes a all the contents of the digitl deluxe edition, an art book, a behind-the-scenes two-disc Blu-ray/DVD set, the game soundtrack and a Legion mouse pad. Snazzy.

Blizzard’s CGI team are something else. Should have let them make the warcraft film IMO.

Chris Metzen was directly involved in the Movie plus they wanted it live action.
WoW Movie is pretty much guaranteed to be the only movie based on a game that will be a huge success.
Still. That trailer though. And the Overwatch shorts they are making.
