World of Warcraft's Warlords of Draenor expansion gets a release date

Blizzard's upcoming expansion for World of Warcraft, Warlords of Draenor, will launch on 13th November.

Blizzard made the release date reveal during a Gamescom live-stream event wherein it debuted a cavalcade of new videos.

First there's the new cinematic trailer for Warlords of Draenor.

Then there's a gameplay trailer of the same thing.

And finally, there's the first episode of Lords of War, a five part series detailing the history of Azeroth as it relates to the upcoming expansion. This first episode focuses on Kargath Bladefist, the sadistic leader of the Shattered Hand.

Warlords of Draenor pre-orders come with a level-90 character boost if you want to practice with an all new character and skip the grind.
