Today will mark the biggest change to World of Warcraft’s landscape since the game originally launched. The game’s third expansion focuses on the transformation of Azeroth through the cataclysmic events resulting from evil dragon Deathwing the Destroyer’s return.
It’ll bring with it around 3500 new quests, two new races, more classes, stats and other things MMO nuts go crazy for. More important though, is it marks the opportunity for your level 80’s to get 5 more dings. Hooray! Excited? You should be, and you should be excited enough to get down to one of the country’s many midnight launches.
The following BTGames stores will be open from 10pm tonight, giving you a chance to get the expansion as early as possible, and play it right through the night. Work be dammed!
- Boardwalk
- Brooklyn
- CanalWalk
- Cavendish
- Centurion
- Eastrand Mall
- Eastgate
- Fourways Mall
- Garden Route
- Greenstone
- Ilanga
- Menlyn
- Mimosa Mall
- Northgate
- Pavillion
- Somerset
- Tygervalley
- Walmer Park
More details here.
If you’re in the Edenvale (JHB) area, Exclus1ve books will also be holding a midnight launch at their Greenstone branch; and with two launches happening in the same mall, store-loyal BT and Exclus1ve fans can battle to death. Man, I hope they battle to the death…

My account is already Cataclysm enabled (bought through eu.Battle.net), and I’m currently downloading the last patch, only 70Mb to go, and I will be.. READY! Only a few more hours before the servers go live in the EU region, and I can literally not wait.
