Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred is due out on April 27 in North and South America (April 28 in the rest of the world), but I've already had a chance to play through the game, and I loved it.

Though WoW patch 12.0.5 is just a minor patch, it's having a big impact on this week's maintenance schedule: modern WoW servers are scheduled to be offline all day, though WoW Classic just has an hour of downtime.

Last week was quiet, but this week is packed with new things to do as World of Warcraft launches patch 12.0.5 and we gear up for Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred's launch next week.

Fish are always up to something, and while Warcraft has several talking fish, I’m extremely concerned about the addition of fishing to Diablo 4 in the upcoming expansion. What kind of fish will we find in Sanctuary? What will they whisper in our ears? Will we replace the Cow Level with a Fish Level?

I have so many concerns.

But for now, this is the Queue, our daily Q&A column where I answer your questions and we all get to hang out in the comments and chat. Let’s get to it.

It's another quick maintenance day for World of Warcraft, with just an hour of downtime scheduled for all servers.

There's a lot going on about a lot going on, as Blizzard continues to release a stream of news about things coming soon.

Thursdays are an enigma that I have yet to solve, and I don’t think today’s looking much better either. But Thursday is here, and we cannot ignore it, only accept it.

This is the Queue, our daily Q&A column where we talk about Warcraft and just about everything else. Welcome.

We've had a lot of lengthy maintenance days lately, so it's refreshing to get a single hour of maintenance across all World of Warcraft realms.

It's another somewhat slow week in the Blizzard gaming world, but what can we say, we're too busy playing Midnight to be upset.

We're heading into the third week of the Midnight Season 1 Race to World First, and things have gotten spicy.
