Blizzard
Entertainment (thanks Tony) announces that World of Warcraft will be in
stores in North America, Australia, and New Zealand on November 23, and their
eagerly anticipated MMORPG "is planned for release in Korea, Europe, and other
countries throughout Asia shortly following." The release goes on to offer
quotes about the project, as well as details on a few different subscription
pricing plans. Here's a bit more:
In World of Warcraft, players assume
the roles of legendary heroes and interact with thousands of other players
online as they explore and adventure across a vast world. Whether journeying
together or questing on their own, players will engage in heroic battles,
develop friendships, forge alliances, and compete with enemies for power and
glory. The game features customizable character classes with thousands of
weapons, spells, and abilities. With an innovative, easy-to-use interface, an
action-packed combat system, and thousands of quests that build an immersive
storyline, World of Warcraft offers a MMORPG that will appeal to both veteran
and casual players alike.
