After a world’s been trashed sufficient, how are you going to additional elevate the stakes (and the ruckus)? Mate, stuff it, tear open a route into the afterlife and provides the already-dead a kicking. Blizzard as we speak introduced Shadowlands, the eighth World Of Warcraft growth, the place Sylvanas Windrunner will just do that. Off we’ll go into heck, exploring, murdering, and assembly new folks.
Descending into heck to determine what Sylvanas is as much as, we’ll discover new locations and meet new Covenants. These are factions we’ll get to pledge to, shifting by a novel story line and gaining distinctive skills. Those vary from fauny fae to flashy vampires and gosh, I do like a little bit of fae.
The new stage cap for this growth will take it from 120 to… 60? Blizzard say, “Level up your next hero through a fully revamped 1–50 experience where every level is meaningful, then advance to the new level cap of 60 in the Shadowlands.” Huh! I’m wondering if that’s a lesson discovered from WoW Classic, the place levelling really appears like a activity slightly than a side-effect.
Shadowlands will even introduce a brand new mode delving int Torghast, Tower of the Damned – a jail for people unhealthy sufficient to be despatched to jail even in heck. “This everchanging, roguelike challenge is open to solo players and groups of up to five, and those who brave its trials will earn some of the afterlife’s worthiest rewards,” Blizzard say.
World Of Warcraft: Shadowlands is coming to Windows and Mac in 2020. It will value £35.
