"The Burning Legion has returned", and that's bad news for Azeroth. The next World of Warcraft expansion, titled Legion, . It includes a new continent called The Broken Isles, a level cap hike to 110, new dungeons and raids, a new honor system, artifact weapons, class order halls and a new demon hunter class.
The Broken Isles is a long forgotten land that lie at the heart of Azeroth that used to be a thriving Night Elf civilisation. Now it's "a graveyard of sorts" that features the Tomb of Sargeras, itself a gateway to endless legion worlds. A brief cinematic shown at the start of the presentation suggests that this is largely Gul'dan's fault. Whatever the reason, a demonic invasion is coming—"biggest invasion of Azeroth ever", in fact—and an army of heroes is needed to stop it.
Artifacts are custom weapons powerful enough to battle the Legion. Forging them will be an important part of Legion's story. There are 36 versions for different specialisations, and all are customisable. As the weapon grows in power you can significantly change the look of the weapon, and unlock a tree of traits that synergise with your class in powerful ways. One trait for the Death Knight's artifact lets them raise themselves upon death. Druids who can't wield a giant impressive sword instead get to customise their form.
We'll have more details on how the honor system works as the presentation progresses. Meanwhile here's a picture of the new class. Horns!
