Blizzard’s usually stellar animation department must be tied up with all things Overwatch as its World of Warcraft: Legion animated short is a little on the basic side compared to its previous creations, despite the fantastic artwork. Created to build hype for World of Warcraft’s upcoming six expansion pack, it features Gul’dan neatly enough, he of recent Warcraft movie fame.

World of Warcraft, the game that just never ends, will be getting a new lease of life this coming August when its Legion expansion pack arrives, Blizzard has announced. The sixth major expansion for World of Warcraft, Legion drops on August 30th, and once more centres around the demons of the Burning Legion. The Tomb of Sargeras has reopened and the Legion is trying to summon the Dark Titan to bring the land of Azeroth to its knees.

The release date for World of Warcraft: Legion, the latest expansion pack for the long running MMORPG, has been leaked ahead of an expected official announcement at BlizzCon later today.

Blizzard hosted its second Gamescom 2015 press conference yesterday evening, revealing World of Warcraft’s sixth expansion. World of Warcraft: Legion is the latest add-on to join the burgeoning ranks of Blizzard’s long-running MMORPG, adding an entire new continent dubbed The Broken Isles.
