World of Warcraft expansion pack trailer released

August 23rd, 2008, 12:20 am by Chris "KeL" Adams

Wrath of the Lich King

Blizzard has unveiled the opening cinematic for the upcoming Wrath of the Lich King, the second expansion pack for the wildly popular World of Warcraft. Blizzard has a reputation for putting together incredible videos for their games and this one doesn’t disappoint. So if you know any WoW fans (and with over 6 million accounts world wide, chances are you do) point them towards it and watch them drool in anticipation. Unfortunately, there’s still no release date, but the smart money says that we’ll have it before Christmas this year.

August 15th, 2008, 12:01 am by Jayson Peters
