World of Warcraft’s next expansion, The War Within, will see players travel deep into the world of Azeroth itself to stop Xal’atath and the Nerubian empire and its forces. Big and exciting changes are on the way as Blizzard attempts to take WoW in a fresh direction.
You’ll explore new zones, experience features like Delves, Warbands, and Hero Talents, and see the start of a new three-expansion storyline called the Worldsoul Saga – that looks to be one of WoW’s most epic tales. If you are interested in diving into The War Within, we’ve got all the details on the upcoming expansion in this guide, including its release date, editions, and trailers, so you can be prepared to jump into this new era of World of Warcraft.
