Starym's Avatar by Starym

We have another weekly roundup from Blizzard, as they dive into everything that’s been announced or gone live this week! Starting with Remix we have the final Argus Eternal phase starting, with the event having around 60 more days to go. Then there’s also the 21st Anniversary celebration event. Blizzard also announced the return of the Turbulent Timeways event in two weeks!

Over in Classic we have two separate launches coming, with the Thunder King patch in MoP Classic, and The Burning Crusade pre-patch coming to Anniversary realms!

There’s also the return of the Gilded Brutosaur to the store. We also have the release of the Blood Ties novel by Christie Golden, focusing on Arator!


The Burning Throne awaits you in Legion Remix, hop over to Tanaris for the 21st Anniversary in-game event fun, prepare for the WoW®: Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary Edition Pre-Expansion Patch arriving January 13, and more! Every week brings thrilling new adventures and loot, so rally your allies and forge your legend in Azeroth.


Legion Remix: Argus Eternal Now Live!

Get ready for fast frenetic fun in Legion Remix as you meet up with the infinite dragonflight once more, level new characters, and earn a variety of items to add to your collection.

Replay the Argus campaign across three deadly zones. Take on the Seat of the Triumvirate and Antorus, the Burning Throne.

Legion Remix is available to everyone, and no expansion purchase is needed, but a World of Warcraft Subscription or Game Time is required to begin this fast-paced adventure through the Broken Isles. This means that Classic players can also participate in the Fel frenzy by simply installing the modern (live) World of Warcraft client.

Head over to our previously published article to learn more. We can’t wait to see you on the Broken Isles in Legion Remix!
