Recall that the release of the eighth addition to World of Warcraft was expected on October 27, but at the beginning of the month, Blizzard Entertainment considered it necessary to postpone the premiere indefinitely.

As it became known, from now on, the release of World of Warcraft: Shadowlands is scheduled for November 23 this year. On the territory of Russia, the launch will take place on November 24 at 2:00 Moscow time.

According to Hite, the transfer allowed the team to properly polish Shadowlands in general and content for high-level players in particular, including the system of battles, rewards, and covenants.

“Now the team is perfectly prepared to finish everything before November 23rd. As usual, we are committed to working with you to improve the game as long as you play it, ”said Haight.

Blizzard Entertainment also announced that the pre-launch of Shadowlands game event – the Scourge invasion of Azeroth – will take place on November 10, and on December 8 the first raid (“Castle of Nafriya”) will begin in the expansion.

In Shadowlands, the developers promise the opportunity to learn about the fate of the legendary heroes of the world of Warcraft, to ally with one of the four covenants, and fight a force that threatens the entire universe.
