Patch 8.2

When we talk about big content patches -- and based on what we know, World of Warcraft's patch 8.2 is a big one -- it helps to know what kind of content players make the most use of.

We will likely be getting the patch 8.2 PTR soon (patent pending) according to a new interview PC Gamer just published with Ion Hazzikostas, the game director of World of Warcraft.  That's big enough on its own, but the interview covers a lot of ground: also Ion talks about lessons learned from Battle for Azeroth, how the Heart of Azeroth will change in patch 8.2, how Blizzard designs big open world content zones in the wake of the Timeless Isle and Argus, and a lot more.

Right now, in Battle for Azeroth we know that this patch is about the fighting between the Horde and Alliance.

Sometimes I think World of Warcraft has an unsolvable problem -- people still want to play it.

Jeremy Feasel, Senior Game Designer for World of Warcraft, had the singular honor of announcing the next major content patch after 8.1 for Battle for Azeroth.

Tonight at BlizzCon 2018's What's Next panel for World of Warcraft, the Blizzard developers unveiled Mechagon, a brand new outdoor questing area discovered through a joint venture and investigation by the diminutive goblins and gnomes.

It's time for the BlizzCon panel you've all (probably) been waiting for!

With the announcement of patch 8.1: Tides of Vengeance, WoW players just got a deluge of information in regards to upcoming content.
