Today, Blizzard announced that Wrath of the Lich King Classic will be released later this year.

Today, Blizzard Entertainment dropped a bombshell announcement: Wrath of the Lich King Classic is slated to arrive by the end of this year. For those who’ve been engrossed in the World of Warcraft universe since its inception, this news is nothing short of exhilarating.

A Journey Through Time

World of Warcraft Classic, which debuted in 2019, transported players back to the golden era of MMO gaming, offering an experience closely mirroring the game’s original state. Following its success, we saw the release of Burning Crusade Classic in 2021, further deepening the nostalgia.

Revisiting a Fan Favorite

Wrath of the Lich King originally graced our screens in 2008 and has since remained a cherished expansion among WoW enthusiasts. This expansion not only introduced the iconic Death Knight class but also beckoned players to explore the icy realms of Northrend, intricately weaving the narrative threads with the events of Warcraft III.

New Twists in Classic

What sets this iteration apart is the revamped approach to the Death Knight class. No longer do you need a high-level character to embark on this journey. Furthermore, while dungeon finder tools became prevalent in the later stages of Wrath of the Lich King, they won’t find a place in this Classic version. Players can also look forward to an array of customization options without the additional cost for cosmetic alterations.
