Blizzard has just announced its sixth expansion for World of Warcraft. It's called World of Warcraft: Legion, and it's turning away from many of the conventions of Warlords of Draenor.
Before the Legion was shown Blizzard showcased a piece that tied the events of Warlords of Draenor to the new expansion. This video featured Gul'dan as he set in motion a potentially cataclysmic invasion of Azeroth. See it below:
Gul'dan has triggered a massive invasion of demons. It's going to be your job to thwart that attack which Blizzard says is the largest front that Azeroth has ever faced, making it a significant challenge.
As part of this sequence of events players will move to the Broken Isles and be able to level to 110. They will also be able to acquire new PvP ranks and customizable legendaries that include the fabled Doomhammer and Ashbringer. Most important of all, a new class will be added: the Demon Hunter. This class can fit the role of a melee DPS or tank, wearing leather and commanding the power of the Illidari.
To get a better idea of what this all looks like, check out the official reveal trailer below:
There are some elements of the expansion that look exciting, but overall reception has been lukewarm. Let us know how you feel about it in the comments below.
