Blizzard is preparing us for Legion’s launch.
World of Warcraft’s sixth expansion comes out tomorrow, and the developer has marked the occasion by releasing a new trailer. World of Warcraft was once a phenomenon with over 12 million subscribers, but those numbers have fallen for the nearly 12-year-old online game. Blizzard no longer reports those numbers, but a new expansion can bring old players back and introduce new ones to the massively multiplayer title.

Legion introduces Demon Hunter as a new class, and it opens up the Broken Isles as a new land to explore. Players also earn and empower Artifact weapons and join Class Halls, new locations where they can hang out with other players from their same class.
