Long description
The epic online multiplayer title gets its second expansion in the form of Wrath of the Lich King, providing even more content to players across the globe.
Much like World of Warcraft’s previous expansion, The Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King gives players a large selection of new quests and environments to explore, as well as altering some of the more fundamental features of the Warcraft world. New continent Northrend is home of the Lich King, who threatens to destroy the world of Azeroth and all of its habitants. Players’ next quests involve stopping the Lich King and fighting against the new dangers of the north.
Those planning to start World of Warcraft anew will be able to do so with the Death Knight - World of Warcraft’s first hero class. Players who wish to use the existing online characters are now able to quest to level 80, providing new skills and talents along the way. New character-customisation options let players edit their online personas with new hairstyles and dances.
World of Warcraft - Wrath of the Lich King adds even more replay value to a game already considered one of the most extensive ever made. With a new continent, features and additions, the world of Warcraft can only grow further.
