It falls to you to crush the Iron Horde before the Dark Portal is completed and the invasion begins. Travel to the Draenor of the past: a world of giants and monsters, a world the fearsome and legendary orc chieftains call home. Face the dangers of this untamable world and bring down the Iron Horde—before both the past and the future are lost forever.

Warlords of Draenor launches worldwide this fall, and you can prepare for the coming invasion now by immediately* boosting a character to level 90 with your pre-purchase of the expansion digitally.

To stop Garrosh’s engines of conquest, you’ll need to recruit allies to your cause and construct a mighty Garrison; explore all-new zones, dungeons, raids, and scenarios across Draenor for resources to aid in your quest; and achieve new heights of power on the way to the new level cap of 100.

Interested in boosting more than one character to level 90 right away? In addition to the boost you get with your Warlords of Draenor pre-purchase, you also have the option of buying additional character boosts directly through the Shop in-game.

Warlords of Draenor is available for pre-purchase digitally in standard and Digital Deluxe editions. The Digital Deluxe Edition comes with a cache of in-game goodies for your favorite Blizzard games, including a Dread Raven mount and Dread Hatchling pet to accompany you in World of Warcraft, Grommash Hellscream and Blackhand Battle.net portraits to intimidate your foes with in StarCraft II, and a battle-torn Warsong Pennant to fuel your demon-slaying rage in Diablo III. What’s more, like the instant character boost, these will be available to you immediately upon your pre-purchase of the expansion.*

Warlords of Draenor will also be available as a retail-exclusive Collector’s Edition (in limited quantities), which comes with the in-game extras from the Digital Deluxe Edition along with an array of awesome artifacts from the physical realm, including a hardcover art book, behind-the-scenes Blu-ray/DVD set, Warlords of Draenor mouse pad, and CD soundtrack featuring epic music from the expansion. Check with your local retailer for pre-ordering details. We’ll have more specifics to share on the Collector’s Edition closer to the game’s launch.

For more information on this fall’s launch of Warlords of Draenor, check out the official press release and the Warlords of Draenor web page.

Level 90 Boosts Now Available
You are now able to purchase Level 90 Boosts for $60 in game! Your boosted character gets:

  • Item level 483 gear. You can quickly upgrade to the epic item level 496 gear from Timeless Isle chests.
  • 150 gold
  • 4 Embersilk (22-slot) bags
  • A stack of 20 food items
  • If a boosted character was already level 60 or above, their existing Primary Professions and First Aid are bumped up to level 600, as mentioned above
  • A faction-specific flying mount - a traditional Wind Rider for Horde or Gryphon for Alliance
  • Artisan flying - that’s one rank below max flight speed
  • Northrend, Kalimdor/Eastern Kingdoms, and Pandaria regional flying skills trained





Digital Deluxe - Dread Raven Mount and Pet
The Reins of the Dread Raven is the Digital Deluxe edition mount that goes with the Dread Hatchling Digital Deluxe edition pet.



Pre-Order and Boost FAQ

When you pre-purchase the expansion* or purchase a standalone character boost from within the game, a Character Boost token will appear on the character-select screen in World of Warcraft. Once you purchase it through either method, you can click the token to apply your boost at any time—no need to use it right away if you’re not ready. Keep in mind that character boosts are irreversible, so it’s a good idea to make sure you’re boosting the character you really want to.

If you boost a level-60 or higher character, you’ll also get an extra bonus: both of your Primary Professions will be bumped up to 600, so you’ll be an instant pro at your chosen callings. If you’re boosting an existing character and want to change professions, just make sure you train the professions you want before you apply the boost. Also, if you’re not quite level 60 yet (but thiiiiiiis close), you might want to consider holding on to your boost token until you earn those last couple of levels—your boost will still be waiting for you when you’re ready.

Check out the Character Boost web page, watch our video guide, or read the support article for lots more information.

Q: Can I apply my character boost to any character on any World of Warcraft account?
That depends! If you pre-purchase the expansion, the Character Boost token will only appear when you’re logged in to the WoW account you upgraded to Warlords of Draenor. If you purchase a standalone character boost, you’ll be able to use it on any eligible World of Warcraft account on your Battle.net account.
Note that if you’re upgrading to Warlords of Draenor directly from the World of Warcraft Starter Edition, it may take up to 72 hours for you to receive your character boost.

Q: When will I receive my in-game goodies if I pre-purchase the Digital Deluxe Edition?
If you pre-purchase the Digital Deluxe Edition, you’ll receive the World of Warcraft pet and mount right away, along with the in-game bonuses for StarCraft II and Diablo III.

Q: Can I get a character boost immediately if I decide to pre-order a physical standard or Collector’s Edition from a retailer?
Players who purchase either the physical standard edition or physical Collector’s Edition from a retail store will get their character boost when they receive their copies at the launch of the expansion.

If you’d like to receive your character boost immediately*, several options are currently available:

  • Pre-purchase the expansion digitally through the Battle.net Shop.
  • Pre-purchase the Digital Standard Edition or Digital Deluxe Edition from GameStop in the U.S. or (coming soon) EB Games in Canada (paid in full at the time of pre-purchase). You’ll receive a code redeemable on Battle.net that will unlock your level-90 boost immediately* and also unlock a copy of the expansion pack when it releases.
  • Select retailers in the U.S. are also now selling Battle.net Balance gift cards. You can use these to charge up your Battle.net Balance to pre-purchase a digital copy of the game through the Battle.net Shop and unlock your level-90 boost immediately (sales tax may apply).

*Players upgrading to Warlords of Draenor from World of Warcraft Starter Edition must wait until trial restrictions are removed before character boost becomes available (may take up to 72 hours).

    how many more new mounts and pets from the in-game shop will we see till WoD?

    Blizzard is starting to look a bit too greedy lately *sad panda*

    Well, we can expect a late fall release. Blizzard acts as if adding 90s to buy is adding content.
    Raiding SoO for a year (maybe more) sounds great.

    2 things i learnt reading all the comments on this page:

    People fail so hard at reading stuff.. when did 'on or before December 20th' become.. yes.. it releases on 20th december.. Fuu blizzard..

    Haters.. Complainers..

    Pleasure to read the comments... way to go guys with all the hatred

    Blizzard really needs to add the option to stop subscription at times like these, it seems unfair people are forced to continue paying when there is no new content.

    All whining aside, we have been given very little information about the next expansion. What we've been told so far is more of a "we are planning to do this", "we want to do that". The last two watercooler posts did exactly that .They went over their "philosophy" of what they are going to do, rather than something more or less concrete. We've only seen art concepts of garrisons, few out of context video clips without any commentary, promises and more promises.. You may think that we can trust Blizzard to accomplish everything they said and everything that plan, but keep in mind that these are the same people who thought that dailies of 5.0 was a great idea.

    It would be nice to have more and better quality information that what we have right now in order to buy the next expansion. Beta has been in the "soon" status for 3 months now.

    People aren't forced at all. You can choose your method of payment from month to month or beyond. It's whatever suits you the best. You can also do time cards as well if need be.

    If you want to unsub for now, that's cool. Start it back up when the expansion is released. Easy peazy.

    Price is fine. Very happy to pay that, for all the work going in, it's not very much at all.

    Release date is fine. I predicted October and I stick by that. Some people unable to read yet still play Wow? Explains a lot actually.

    Wow is in a bit of a bad state and Wod is addressing this and is pretty much a new version of the game. I hope they take as long as they need. I still expect October but if it's December, then it's December for a very good reason.

    so SoO opened 9/4/2013 - essentially we got 12 months of SoO , with all the "more content faster " was a farse, all they did was give us more dailies to stretch out the game and called it "more" thats like making the stick longer but not increasing the carrot size, bait and switch in my opinion, time to cancel my account , i am not waiting 6 months for the expac to come out i'm just not, save the time i have bought on my account until later

    If WoD releases in September it still means SOO will have been the longest end-tier in WoW's entire history. It's already unreasonable at this point, and if they do delay into December; I don't even have words for that fail.
  1. subanark's Avatar
    Aside from Blizzard failing to meet their goal of faster content release, the main issue I have is that you can't buy the xpac standalone. Kind of silly that although the 90 boost will help new players get right into the new stuff, they still need to buy 2 products to get there.

    Remove the requirement to have the previous version. Then offer a free month for everyone, so that new people won't need to pay for another item right off the bat. Add $15 to the cost of the game to account for the free month. Then give everyone who had MoP an incentive to not just get a fresh copy (e.g. a pet, maybe 10% xp boost for leveling 90-100).

    Bait and switch? really? Apparently you don't know what it means (hint, you may want to look up the definitions before throwing terms around)

    Is it too long? Perhaps, I'm not subbed right now, so it really doesn't bother me. I have plenty to keep me occupied through till fall at least. Not exactly comfortable with the price point - but I'll wait until closer to launch before deciding for sure. For me at least, at this point, $20 extra for a mount and pet really isn't worth it.
