WoTLK To Be Released Between October And December This Year

Some WoW players have probably taken a break from the game already, planning to come back when the Wrath of the Lich King expansion comes out. Maybe be it’s because your guild has conquered the Sunwell Plateau and have nothing much else to do in the game. or maybe it’s because you see no point in getting geared better since you’ll eventually replace all the gear because of the gear reset we will all experience when the expansion comes out. Or maybe, just maybe you’re simply burned out and need a break.If ever this feels like you now and badly need to take a break from the game, there’s still a pretty good amount of time to get that rest.

Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaim announced that the Wrath of the Lich King expansion will be coming out anytime between October and December this year. If this is to be followed, you have at least all of August and September to take a break and most probably even more than that given Blizzard’s reputation of releasing their games later rather than sooner.

“We have said that it will be coming out this year,” Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime revealed in a conference call today. “I can tell you it’s not coming in the July to September quarter.”

We’ll just have to be content with the information we’re receiving from the beta testing for now and hopefully when it finally goes live between October and December, the waiting will be worth it. I wonder if we’ll be given a pre-expansion patch like what Blizzard did before TBC came out so that we can get a taste of the new talent trees.
