Official WotLK Update: Dragonblight
Thursday, March 13, 2008 by C. Carter
Blizzard has released more information on the upcoming expansion, World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King. Dragonblight, the newly featured zone, seems to be akin to a great elephant graveyard for dragons. The official page also features a short Flash flyby movie. My first impression of the environmentals is "more of the same", with no real new elements worth mentioning. Still, it's worth a look.
Nothing is officially stated, but in the description of the new zone there is mention of a gate and imminent siege by both Horde and Alliance. With that in mind, and considering that WotLK will feature some sort of siege combat, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that - finally - we can look forward to another world event much like The War Effort that preceded access to the Ahn'Qiraj raid instances!
Here dense forests surround a vast arctic wasteland littered with the massive, gleaming bones of perished dragons. In the center of this frozen expanse lies Wyrmrest Keep, a structure believed to be built by the world-shaping titans shortly after Azeroth's creation.
