WOW - New Expansion Announced! : World of Warcraft General Discussions

In the cold, harsh northland..

The Lich King Arthas has set in motion events that could lead to the
extinction of all life on Azeroth. With the armies of the undead and the
necromantic power of the plague threatening to sweep across the land,
only the mightiest heroes can oppose the Lich King's will and end his reign
of terror for all time.

Blizzard Entertainment's latest expansion to World of Warcraft – Wrath of
the Lich King – adds a host of epic content to the existing game world.
Players will achieve soaring levels of power, explore a vast new continent,
and battle other high-level heroes to determine the fate of Azeroth. As you
pit yourself against the dangers of the north, prepare to:

Features

* Master the necromantic powers of the Death Knight - World of Warcraft's first Hero class.

* Quest to level 80, gaining potent new abilities and talents along the way.

* Learn the craft of spell augmentation with the new Inscription profession.

* Brave the harsh new continent of Northrend, the icy domain of the Lich King.

Well its still Alpha, they are updating it to maybe support DX10.

Yea i hope they get some dx10 stuff in there then it will be much better. I think my problem is i keep looking at AOC screen shots hah.

heres an interesting take on DX10 http://crave.cnet.com/8301-1_105-9750536-1.html

nonetheless the new expansion sounds cool. I'm really surprised Blizzard is updating their graphics engine.
