Blizzard Trademarks "Warlords of Draenor" - WoW Expansion
Blizzard just trademarked "Warlords of Draenor" in New Zealand. It was then registered in Australia shortly after.

  • Computer game software, computer game discs, downloadable computer game software, computer game software downloadable from a global computer network, interactive multimedia computer game program; downloadable electronic game software for use on portable electronic devices such as mobile and cellular phones, laptops, handheld computers, and tablet PCs.
  • Entertainment services, namely, providing on-line computer games; providing on-line non-downloadable computer games that may be accessed via a global computer network; providing online news and information in the field of computer games.

It's also worth mentioning that warlordsofdraenor.com was registered a month ago.

I do realize that we had a lot of fun times with trademarks in the past (*cough* Dark Below *cough*) but let's just say that on a personal level I'm pretty confident about this one. I'll leave the speculation up to you guys until Blizzcon.

    Like Azhara is the raid boss and Sargeras is the next expansion end game boss??? :P
    Azshara*

    And I would've loved that, but it would be more likely now that Azshara would be a "Ragnaros/Thunder King" boss in the 7.0 expansion summoning Sargeras or something like that.

    Hero's of the storm which everyone streamed fake because it was filed in New Zealand happened to be real

    I absolutely despise time travelling. I still have hopes that the guy who leaked this was only correct about the name and not the time travel. But that wouldn't make sense story-wise. Guess I'll wait for Blizzcon for further info.

    They better have the character models ready to make up for this.

    All redone character models will be in the expansion release, there will be at least a few previewed at Blizzcon.

    Alleria & Turalyon will have been corrupted by the Burning Legion, will lead the new invasion of Azeroth. We'll have to fight our old heroes... again.
    I guess you right, It wil be same as Diablo 3:RoS guy gets missing for years and then come back and want to destroy world or whatever.

    What came to my mind when I read this: Does Draenor get the same treatment as Krypton or Thundera in the 80s version of Thundercats? (Both planets were destroyed but have been remade in the course of both storylines, iirc)

    Time to get rid of those rose-tinted nostalgia glasses? Vanilla and BC might have been good back then, but a game has to evolve and if they released either vanilla or bc today it would most likely be a total disaster.

    They haven't even released Hearthstone yet, so I doubt it.

    Yeah, if there will be time travel, maybe we'll see 1st and 2nd war.

    However if we treat hearthstone like a true tangible trading card game, and any expansions like booster packs or tins then it makes sense. Booster packs and tins come out much quicker then MMO content patches and expansions. So its definitely a viable theory.

    The new meme for this expansion will be "time travel is <insert insult here>".

    I for one am super excited about it. The Black Forest has been brought up in MoP and in Lovecraft lore that is space I believe. So I have been looking forward to this for some time.

    This may not even be based on time travel. Time travel may just be a small part of it.

    Give something a chance before you start putting it down.

    If it is a Hearthstone release- it could be tied to the expansion. In fact if they do release a Hearthstone release, it probably will be tied to the expansion.

    That's true, but still I somehow doubt that this has anything to do with HS.

    Actually, i felt the same way until someone brought up HS. "Warlords of Draenor" seems far too specific to be the title of a wow expac. I just can't shake the feeling that we are being tricked, much in the same way of D3's expac title being announced.

    You are good folk if you can admit you made a mistake. Lord knows I have. Humility opened my life up to a lot of enjoyment.
