Blizzard News – World of Warcraft Cataclysm MMORPG Expansion
WoW Expansion Cataclysm Announced by Blizzard
This week at Blizzard’s fourth BlizzCon conference, Blizzard made an exciting announcement to fans of the massively successful MMORPG World of Warcraft. Blizzard released the news that there would be a major upcoming expansion for the game with World of Warcraft: Cataclysm.
Cataclysm is promised to be the third major expansion for World of Warcraft and is sure to add a new mix of gameplay and adventure to keep the game fresh for new players and long time subscribers.
The expansion pack will feature the dragon Aspect Deathwing which suddenly reigns down on the land from a long underground slumber. Deathwing will lay waste to the face of Azeroth, and will alter the balance of power in the game.
Along with these events comes the advent of heroes and villains into the game, as well as additional game elements including two new races (goblins and worgen), a new level cap of 85, and new game zones which reflect Deathwing’s destruction.
World of Warcraft: Cataclysm will also feature new zones including a sunken city, it will implement new battleground zones for PVP combat, and offer new classes and professions including archeology.
The release for this highly anticipated expansion if not yet known, but we are guessing Blizzard will have this ready in time for gamers this holiday season! (Q4 2009)
