There are a lot of games showcased every year at Gamescom, and the 2022 show was no exception.

As the kids go back to school and I have Pumpkin Spice Lattes to give me a little extra motivation, I’ve been putting a lot of effort into sorting out my real life. I have a tendency to create doom boxes to get all this junk out of my face and then forget about them, so the beginning of the school year is a great time to try and sort all that out into a clean slate. No, don’t look at the number of Chrome tabs I have open or my bank. This is fine.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we swear we saw the answer around here a second ago. We’ll find it. Probably.

If you raided during Wrath of the Lich King, you almost certainly remember Ulduar, which to this day is considered one of the best raids WoW ever had, so you may be surprised that the Wrath of the Lich King Classic team is considering making changes to Ulduar as well as the raids that followed it. WoW Classic game producer Aggrend got on the forums to explain exactly what they're debating doing to Ulduar, Trial of the Crusader, and Icecrown Citadel in Wrath Classic.

One of the most popular stories you'll hear from the earliest World of Warcraft players is how Alterac Valley battleground matches could last many hours, with players leaving for meals or classes and then returning to find the same match going.

With the arrival of the final Shadowlands patch, World of Warcraft has officially entered its pre-expansion lull, and while the Dragonflight alpha is chugging along, many players tend to farm old expansions during the downtime, looking to pick up collectibles and transmogs they may have missed the first time around.

As Blizzard prepares to launch Overwatch 2 won't have loot boxes, and as Blizzard prepares for the game to launch on October 4, some changes need to be made to the current game to help ease the transition to a world without loot boxes.

I think my favorite thing about Fated raids is that we’ve gotten to see Rendle in Castle Nathria again. I love this lil guy. Just so eager to please and fix our gear for us!

I also love that I think his pile of gold has gotten bigger since the last time we were in Nathria. That’s one of the little things that has made World of Warcraft so great over the years, little touches like that.

While I give him a little more gold after yet another Sun King’s Salvation wipe, it’s time for — The Queue.

Every Diablo 3 player receives the warning, "many Nephalem have stood where you are now, but few succeeded in overcoming the trials," from Orek when learning of Greater Rifts, but now a new type of Rift awaits us: the Echoing Nightmare.

There are various characters who have been important to Warcraft as a whole, and World of Warcraft in particular, that we haven't seen for a while.

There are a few things I talk about pretty regularly here at Blizzard Watch -- among all the Void-y, Bloodborne-vibes goodness, I love me some Splatoon.
