ARR, Mateys! The Plunderstorm Makes Landfall Once More!
A new storm is surging, and players can dive back into the fray of the Plunderstorm once more. Spend your well-earned Plunder in the new Plunderstore for great new rewards, test your mettle with new spells at your fingertips, explore new points of interest on the map, and more! Each match is 10-15 minutes long and has 60 players per match, with the winner being the last one standing. Level up and acquire new abilities and spells by killing creatures and enemies, looting chests, and avoiding the encroaching storm.
Set Sail for the Plunderstorm
The Arathi Highlands is the backdrop for this pirating adventure, and you'll have plenty of challenges to keep you busy. We’ve added a few new points of interest to explore and plunder, including new enemy spawn camps. All non-elite enemies will now respawn, opening up more opportunities to gain plunder to spend, and you can ride like the wind when you visit one of the horse spawn points, mount up, and traverse the map.
More details on new experience changes can be found in our previously published arrrticle.
WoW Classic: 20th Anniversary Edition Phase 2 Battlegrounds Now Live!
Ring in the new year with the updated Honor System, the opening of iconic battlegrounds Warsong Gulch and Alterac Valley, and the release of Dire Maul and the world bosses, Azuregos and Kazzak.
Get ready for the Warsong Gulch and Alterac Valley battlegrounds! We’ve learned a lesson or two since we launched the original Honor System in 2019. With that launch, we saw a lot of great chaotic outdoor PvP engagements between players. But this chaos also led us to adjust plans so that we released battlegrounds slightly earlier than expected. This time, with the new Anniversary Edition realms, we’re leaning into the excitement and embracing the chaos—for one week only! (Southshore vs. Tarren Mill, anyone?) Warsong Gulch and Alterac Valley battlegrounds are now live.
We can’t wait to see everyone’s adventures unfold in this next chapter! More information can be found in our previously published article.
