World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade E3 Preview

[GameBanshee News]

The folks at RPG Vault have dished up a short preview of Blizzard's World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, based on what they saw of the expansion pack during this year's E3.

The show marked the debut of the Draenei race, which joins the Alliance. Originally from the planet Argus, they have knowledge of the Holy Light of Creation that also gives power to Azeroth's Paladins. Revealed previously, the magically inclined Blood Elves will augment the Horde. Each will have its own home area and the continent of Outland, familiar to those who played Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, will be opened, as will various other new locations. These elements seem likely to help attract new players while also offering current ones cause to create further characters. A few other notable additions are the Jewelcrafting profession, socketable items and flying mounts. The level cap will rise from 60 to 70, and of course, we can expect new monsters, quests, gear, dungeons, etc.
