World of Warcraft: Legion expansion announced

Blizzard Entertainment today unveiled World of Warcraft: Legion, the sixth expansion to its MMORPG.

In this new chapter, the demonic Burning Legion has returned, seeking to call forth their fallen leader - the dark titan Sargeras, Ravager of Worlds. As destruction rains across Azeroth, its heroes must seek salvation among the ruins of the Broken Isles, doomed center of ancient night elf civilization.

The expansion promises features and content that will transform players into Azeroth’s elite vanguard against the shadow. A new melee hero class Demon Hunter is gifted with preternatural mobility - and the ability to metamorphose into hellish new forms. With Artifact Weapons, smite the Legion with legendary weapons of lore. Earn Artifact power to unlock abilities and traits, and customize your weapon to suit your needs.

A whole new content of The Broken Isles lets players discover the fate of a lost night elf civilization, confront twisted fragments of the Emerald Nightmare, and hunt agents of the Legion in all-new zones. With the Order Hall, unite fellow NPC members of your class’s order to carry out missions at your command.

A new PvP Honor System lets players fight for fame, glory, and a range of new PvP-specific powers as you face the opposing faction in Arenas and Battlegrounds. Finally, be fully prepared to battle the Legion with a level-100 boost for one character. For those still wanting to grow, a new level cap of 110 will be introduced.

World of Warcraft: Legion does not currently have a release date.
