Patch 6.1 arrives on February 24. Here's a patch overview covering new content and features coming with World of Warcraft Patch 6.1.

In Warlords of Draenor, players can use Apexis Crystals to buy new gear, collectable items, and even Followers. With enough Crystals, even those who are having no luck with the RNG goblins can get new and powerful gear to help them take their adventures even further.

In this series of blog posts, we’re giving you a closer look at Garrisons and how you’ll interact with them in Warlords of Draenor. In this fourth and final part, we’re looking at the day-to-day operation of your own personal base on Draenor.

Join us Wednesday, October 29 at 19:00 CET for a special live stream direct from Ashran. Designers Brian Holinka and Chris Kaleiki will be joined by community manager, Josh “Lore” Allen to provide commentary and share insights on all that Ashran has to offer.

For those looking to receive the free character boost now, but also want those sweet Collector’s Edition physical items, we’ve set up a process to ensure you can do both.

Welcome to the first in an ongoing series of programming- and engineering-focused articles that, over time, will cover some of the technical nuts and bolts that go into creating and running World of Warcraft.

A storm of iron is headed Azeroth’s way—be among the first to witness its fury at the world premiere of the Warlords of Draenor cinematic!

Built upon the remnants of an ogre civilization, Ashran looks like a nice enough island just off the coast of Tanaan Jungle—and would be a lovely place to visit if not for the never-ending tug-of-war between the Horde and Alliance. Then again, this might just be just your kind of excursion. Are you ready for it?

This fall, the fearless heroes of Azeroth will clash against the mythic might of the Iron Horde when Warlords of Draenor launches worldwide. Prepare for the coming invasion now by boosting now* a character to level 90 with your pre-purchase of the expansion digitally.
