World of Warcraft®

Tensions between the Horde and Alliance are heating up just in time for the summer, and now’s the perfect time to get in the fight.

We just uploaded two updates containing delicious slices of fresh lore to the World of Warcraft game site for your reading pleasure. The Warcraft timeline now includes synopses for Patch 5.2: The Thunder King and Patch 5.3: Escalation, and we also deployed a brand-new lore web feature: character cards!
