BlizzCon 2017 is in full swing, which means everybody’s favorite titles are receiving all sorts of updates and new goodies. During the opening ceremony, the next World of Warcraft expansion was announced, bringing the crowd to their feet and cheering with uproarious applause. To top things off, Blizzard even released the cinematic trailer for Battle for Azeroth, WoW‘s seventh expansion. But first, let’s see what we can expect.

Battle for Azeroth will reignite the flames of the Alliance vs. Horde rivalry. Kul Tiras will be the island setting in which the Alliance focuses on, while the Horde will be hanging around the islands of Zandalar. Speaking of land surrounded by water, Blizzard also announced the new “islands” system, in which players can group up in parties of three to encounter changing enemies and situations in particular areas. To see some of the glorious action that is to come, check out the cinematic trailer below:

No word was mentioned as to when the Battle for Azeroth expansion would be released, but it can be assumed that it will be arriving at some point mid-2018. When it does launch, however, players will be able to hit a new cap of 120. A new legendary neck piece will also be out there to be discovered. The Heart of Azeroth will unlock new powers and traits for those who have it equipped.
