The Burning Crusade: Hellfire Citadel Preview

On the blasted world of Outland, within the heart of Hellfire Peninsula stands Hellfire Citadel, a nearly impenetrable bastion that served as the Horde's base of operations throughout the First and Second Wars. For years this gargantuan fortress was thought to be abandoned...

Until recently.

New Ahn'Qiraj Trailer!

Something sinister dwells within Ahn'Qiraj, something that gave pause even to the mighty dragons when they led the night elven forces into the heart of the qiraji empire during the War of the Shifting Sands. In this new gameplay trailer featuring footage of the opening of the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj, watch an enormous group of heroes, from both the Alliance and the Horde, gather before the Scarab Wall to face the coming darkness as one.
