World of Warcraft’s seventh official expansion, World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth, is releasing this August. After teasing us with content and all the awesome things players can do in the massive new addition to the MMORPG, we’re finally going to be seeing the game later this year on August 14, 2018.

There will be a special prologue patch that will release in the coming weeks before the full content drop is available, and both Horde and Alliance players are in for a treat. Horde players will be taking to the Alliance Night Elf area Teldrassil, while Alliance players will lead a charge on the Horde’s Undercity for plenty of good, old-fashioned chaos. Battle for Azeroth is a return to form in many ways, and these questlines are just the start of it.

It’s all about taking things back to the olden Warcraft days with conflicts that push Horde against Alliance at every turn, with new island missions, AI Warfront RTS campaign simulations, and various other new content to complete. Don’t forget the level cap that’s been raised to 100, new Allied Races, a new Heart of Azeroth artifact, and more new stuff than you can shake a stick at.

If you’ve been thinking of getting back into WoW, this might be the expansion that pushes you over the edge and back into the addictive MMO that somehow seems to keep getting better over the years.
