I have always quietly roleplayed in World of Warcraft, but this expansion almost demands RP.

There's a lot of hubbub around the upcoming World of Warcraft 20th Anniversary these days.

Warcraft Rumble's eighth season is currently underway, having premiered the new Dryad unit alongside the Scholomance dungeon.

The first raid in the current World of Warcraft expansion, The War Within, is the Nerub-ar Palace, and it's opening September 10.

I have a headcanon that intrepid explorer Brann Bronzebeard is also by necessity a polyglot. He is the first one to make contact with all these new races and factions we meet, so he quite painstakingly tries to preserve things like their place names and such so that the Champion can have a touchstone. Unfortunately, Brann isn’t so great with punctuation or sometimes even the precise spellings, so sometimes the maps and names will change over time. It’s kind of his YOLO nature that it’s important to just get it down first, and edit later if it’s important.

Anyway, just in case you’re having a time removing the apostrophe from Nerub-ar Palace (yes, it is now officially Nerub-ar Palace), you too can feel free to blame Brann.

Long maintenance is starting to become a staple for The War Within, and so it's no surprise that here at the start of Season 1, we have one more long maintenance day.

I sure hope you have a comfortable chair and a full wallet, because there's an awful lot coming out in the next six months.

Special Assignments are a type of World Quest being offered in The War Within, and to unlock them, they'll typically require you to complete three basic World Quests in that zone.

Arachnophobia Mode ON -- it's time to don our most stylish spider-stomping boots for the launch of The War Within.

The next Hearthstone miniset, The Traveling Travel Agency, launches September 10, including the usual new cards and being purchasable with either in-game gold or real money — but far more importantly, it has some of the most creative (and pun-tastic) cards out there.
