WoW

In a stunning cinematic trailer released today at BlizzCon, Sylvanas appeared to turn the entire World of Warcraft on its head -- literally, in more ways than one -- with the announcement of the next expansion, Shadowlands.

When you write about Blizzard, it's hard to resist the siren song of "next expansion leaks" that start popping up every year a few months before BlizzCon -- especially on those extremely rare times when you read a leak and it sounds legit to you.

Even if you aren't going to BlizzCon, you can still participate and potentially get answers to your burning questions in the WoW Q&A.

Every year, I dress up as Rhonin.

We'd like to think Bolvar is doing fine as the Lich King, but a closer look at the Death Knight campaign reveals some peculiar similarities, and raises some disturbing questions.

Lately, I’ve been leveling a Warrior.

WoW has been around so long that naturally the in-game holidays have evolved as the years have gone by.

It's a tradition in World of Warcraft going all the way back to Cataclysm and the Dragon Soul raid that the last raid -- especially if it has any sort of Old God theme like Dragon Soul or Siege of Orgrimmar did -- will have weird items with unusual procs and powers that fit the theme of chaos, madness, and corruption of those selfsame Old Gods.

Ever since the concept of Corrupted items was introduced, I've been thinking about the sheer level of RNG it adds into gearing in World of Warcraft.

Burning Crusade Timewalking has returned, and with it comes your chance to raid Black Temple more or less as it was during Burning Crusade.
