World of Warcraft - Cataclysm

The next expansion in the multi-million selling World of Warcraft franchise is due for release on the 7th December 2010, just in time for Christmas. Have you pre-ordered your copy yet? The latest installment promises to be bigger and better than ever before, attempting to draw in new players and rekindle the excitement of existing residents of Azeroth.

The world of Azeroth is moving on in time and a great dragon, called Deathwing, has awoken bringing devastation to the world as we know it. Areas of Azeroth that we previously great forests have been reduced to charred deserts, and new areas of the world have become accessible once again. The whole landscape has changed, including areas that were present but just never properly drawn before because players usually just passed over them on flying mounts.

There are also two new races joining the Alliance and Horde. The Alliance are joined by the Worgen, werewolf like creatures afflicted by a curse that transforms them from human form into mighty wolves. And the Horde are joined by the Goblins, a faction of the entire Goblin race that have finally decided to take sides. Players will undoubtedly be looking forward to seeing how these two new races play.

And finally the level cap will once again be raised, now to level 85. All in all, a very exciting prospect for an expansion pack.
