The first day of BlizzCon 2019 is over and full of big announcements!
We posted a whole lot about this, but we also understand that sometimes it was just too much.

Here is a recap of what was announced at BlizzCon 2019

World of Warcraft

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands is officially announced

• In Shadowlands we will travel to a land that even precedes the Titans, after Sylvanas beats Bolvar in a battle and breaks the crown of the Lich King.
• World of Warcraft: Shadowlandsis coming in 2020 and will be available for play at BlizzCon. Pre-orders available right now.
• There will be a couple new gameplay features coming to World of Warcraft, but sadly no new class it seems. Check out the gameplay trailer below.

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands will introduce Level Squish to level 50, with new leveling system

• With the pre-patch of World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, players will go all the way back to level 50, to then level to 60 in the expansion.
• “Every Level Is Meaningful: Shadowlands will introduce a new leveling system, meant to provide a meaningful sense of advancement with every level achieved. Current max-level characters will begin Shadowlands at level 50 and work toward the new level cap of 60.”

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands Epic Edition now for pre-order

• World of Warcraft Shadowlands is real! The expansion must be downloadable by 2020, but it is already possible to pre-order.
• Includes everything in the Heroic Edition, plus 30 days of game time, the Anima Wyrmling cap, an otherworldly Eternal Traveler’s effect for your Hearthstone, and Illusion: Wraithchill, a cosmetic effect for your weapon. As with other Illusions, Wraithchill cannot be applied to certain weapon types.
