Looking at the new Silvermoon, and Eversong Woods in general is, in many ways, almost like looking at a “WoW 2.” Or, perhaps, a remastered version of WoW. It’s a bigger, better-looking, improved on nearly every aspect version of the same zones we first saw in Burning Crusade, 19 years ago. Familiar places, locations, NPCs, looking shiny and new and breathtaking.

This is The Queue, our daily Q&A column where we have a constant sense of awe finding out how that gate or that tunnel or that spire looks just like it does in our memories, but better.

I decided to hasten my original plans and get a Nintendo Switch 2 now rather than wait until May. I’m now the proud owner of this new console, and I’m ready to… delve into my backlog of Switch 1 games.

Until Fire Emblem Fortune’s Weave is launched, at least. Though I did get the new Mario Kart, and I’ve heard good things about Donkey Kong Bonanza. We’ll see how it goes.

Welcome to The Queue, our daily Q&A column where we buy things now just to be safe, we change our plans at a moment’s notice, and in the meantime, we answer questions.

When Hearthstone pets were introduced, they cost up to $158, which was already insanely high.

I don’t believe in witches, but if they fly, they fly.

This is an extra-spooky Friday the 13th edition of The Queue, our daily Q&A where you ask us scary questions and we give you frightening answers. Hopefully. Probably. Look, scaring people is hard.

BOO!

So you're browsing the internet in search of a deck to play in Hearthstone, and you stumble upon a deck code.

Blizzard, you had better add this absolute work of art — perhaps the best prop item your artists have ever conceived — to Player Housing as a decor option. That will be all. I will not be taking questions at this time.

…except I will be taking questions at this time because this is The Queue, our daily Q&A column where the Q stands for — you guessed it — Questions! And Answer them we shall, right after I stop writing this intro.

There’s a lot going on in WoW right now, so it’s no surprise that we got a lot of questions about things that are currently going on in the game. Welcome back weekend! Housing! More housing! Midnight questing! Midnight catch up event!

This our daily Q&A column, and it’s called The Queue. You ask the questions, we provide the answers. Let’s boogie, players.

One of the most exciting pieces of news arriving in today's 2026 State of Azeroth content update for World of Warcraft was Labyrinths, a new, bigger format for Delves.

The expansion itself is still a few weeks away, but the prepatch for said expansion is almost here, and we’re about to be hit with the brunt of the changes. Addons going kaput! Simplified rotations! Far fewer buttons on your action bars! Feral Druids and Worgen living together! Psychic Scream!

It’s simultaneously scary and exciting — which is weirdly appropriate with an expansion about the Void coming into our world, making the sky go dark. So welcome to The Queue, our daily Q&A column where we panic about upcoming things (while also being fired up about them).

The Cooldown Manager is an in-game tool to help players track their ability cooldowns, buffs, and debuffs, replicating functionality that has usually been provided by addons such as WeakAuras and TellMeWhen.
