World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King Interview

[GameBanshee News]

PC Zone released their 190th issue earlier today, which included an interview with Blizzard's Jeff Kaplan about their World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King expansion pack. For those of us who have abandoned gaming mags, CVG brings us a taste:

A "cool part of Northrend is new big PvP zone. It's about the size of Westfall, and will be all-PvP - in no way, shape or form will we support PvE players in it", the developer's Jeff Kaplan has told PC Zone.

He continued, "It'll be optional, but it'll be completely non-instanced, have multiple objectives, siege weapons and destructible buildings".

In the interview, Kaplan went on to promise that WoW adventurers will have their socks blown off when they first enter the new continent of Northrend.

"We absolutely need to make the entry to Northrend epic", he said. "...we originally had the entry to Burning Crusade's Dark Portal as a bunch of cohorts waling around, and people reacted badly. This really hammered home the fact that we needed to raise expectations on entering the expansions"
