Blizzard announces the release of Warlords of Draenor, the newest expansion for World of Warcraft, their MMORPG. Battle.net offers Release Patch Notes and other details on the expansion, and here's an overview:

Warlords of Draenor sends Azeroth’s heroes beyond the Dark Portal on a desperate mission to save their world from the vicious Iron Horde—a formidable army of the most infamous orc clans from Warcraft’s battle-scarred history. As players explore the savage alien world of Draenor, they’ll encounter fierce new foes and befriend unlikely allies, construct and command a mighty Garrison, and take their place on the front lines in the battle to save Azeroth from a future forged in iron.

Warlords of Draenor is available in a standard edition, Digital Deluxe edition, and retail-exclusive Collector’s Edition. Everyone who purchases the expansion can also boost one character to level 90 so they’re instantly ready to explore the wilds of Draenor and experience the latest content alongside their friends.
