You've heard from Wordaen and Tyrandor. Now Azuarc begins his travels throughout Northrend, keeping a record of the things he does to whet your appetite for the coming expansion. Read today's installment, detailing the changes to the user interface and the other adjustments to the game Az had to account for before making the journey to Northrend, including browsing the achievements window and figuring out where the Stormwind barber shop was.

This just in folks. Ran across a Blue post about some upcoming changes to Wintergrasp, the wonderful new PvP zone in the highly anticipated expansion to World of Warcraft. Read on!

And it is hot! Or cool? Anyway, it's awesome!

Check it out!

Blizzard official annoucement: Five years have passed since Arthas released Ner'zhul from his icy prison and merged with him, claiming the Frozen Throne of Icecrown. Now the heir of Lordaeron has risen again, and soon the world will learn what it means to incur the wrath of its one true king.... The opening cinematic for World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King is now available for download or streaming from the official Wrath of the Lich King website.

 Visit our forums to discuss it.

There’s no denying that the new Death Knight class is one of the major selling points of the upcoming World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King expansion. And I guess as far as marketing goes, it worked pretty well, because the first thing I did upon getting into the beta was to create my own Death Knight and fool around. So here’s a brief overview of what’s in store for those of us who try out the Death Knight (referred to as a "DK" from now on) when the expansion comes out.

But there is a catch! Yup, you heard me, a catch... a lottery actually . Good luck!

Blizzard Gamers,

On behalf of everyone at Blizzard, I want to apologize for the challenges and frustrations you experienced while trying to purchase BlizzCon tickets on Monday and Tuesday. BlizzCon is about the positive experiences you all have had with Blizzard games. As a result of this week's events, the excitement that many of you felt about the show has turned into dissatisfaction and disappointment.

Due to these circumstances, we've reevaluated our convention hall space and come up with some solutions that will allow us to offer 3,000 more tickets for sale. We know this will not be enough to satisfy the very high level of demand for tickets this year, but we want to ensure that BlizzCon remains a great experience for those of you who are able to attend. To avoid the issues many of you faced this week, we'll be selling these 3,000 via a lottery. We'll post further details once our plans are finalized. Please note that the lottery will only be open to those with an active Blizzard Account as of 9:00 PM PDT on August 12, the time that the "Sold Out" notice was posted.

I, and everyone else at Blizzard, share the frustration and disappointment that many of you have expressed as a result of this process. We'll do what it takes to avoid this type of situation in the future.

Sincerely,

Mike Morhaime
