WoW: Updates @ Official Site

For years, tensions between the Alliance and the Horde have mounted as world-wide conflicts threaten to plunge the two factions into all-out war. Now, the Alliance has begun to tighten the noose, and whoever controls the towers in the Eastern Plaguelands controls the tide of battle... watch our brand-new outdoor PvP trailer of the Eastern Plaguelands on the World of Warcraft movies page.

We've updated our screenshot gallery for World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade with 31 images, including three new shots of the Blood Elves and Draenei in their starting areas.

The World of Warcraft team is happy to announce the release of "Drums of War", the new 1.12 content patch!

Highlights of Drums of War - Patch 1.12:

Cross-Server Battlegrounds: For the first time in the history of World of Warcraft, you will be able to face off against players from other realms in the Battlegrounds. PvP Battlegrounds link Alterac Valley, Warsong Gulch, and Arathi Basin so that players from several realms will be combined into one huge matchmaking pool. Replenish your mana, sharpen your blades, and get ready for some brand-new challengers!

World PvP: The stage is set for intense, objective-based land battles as Horde and Alliance vie for control over important strategic positions and resources around Azeroth. Head out for Silithus and Eastern Plaguelands to engage the enemy on the field!
