Blizzard Launches the Warcraft Encyclopedia

What's the primary language of night elves? What is the Cenarion Circle? Who is Sargeras? You can get the answers to all these questions and anything else you'd ever want to know about the Warcraft universe with the new Warcraft Encyclopedia, now online at the official World of Warcraft website. This is the official source on everything and anything related to the legendary Blizzard franchise and includes info about major races, characters, factions, locations and other things related to the Warcraft series. Blizzard plans to update this resource multiple times a year and turn it into the ultimate source for Warcraft info.

World of Warcraft Expansion Pushed to 2007
Today millions of World of Warcraft fans probably logged on to Blizzard's official WoW forums and let out a collective cry of sorrow and agony as they discovered that the The Burning Crusade expansion pack will be delayed. Instead of a holiday release like many expected, WoW:TBC won't be shipping out to stores until January 2007.

In today's posting Mike Morhaime, president and co-founder of Blizzard Entertainment says, "We feel confident that the extra time spent polishing the game will result in the high-quality experience that our players expect and deserve."

We went to Blizzard to see if we could get any additional comments regarding the delay, the reply we got was, "We expect to ship World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade in January 2007, which will enable us to extend closed beta testing and spend extra time polishing the game. We feel that the additional feedback that we'll gather from testers will help us put the finishing touches on the content coming in the expansion." You can expect a more specific release date sometime in the near future.
