Silvermoon Is Finally Becoming the City Burning Crusade Promised

Stan's Avatar by Stan

Art Director Elly Cannon talked to TheGamer about the Midnight expansion and here are the highlights of their interview.

Interview Highlights

  • Elly says they want to capture the Burning Crusade nostalgia with the Silvermoon rework.
  • It’s a full reimagining of what Silvermoon could have been if Blizzard had the tech, tools, and design sensibilities they do now, compared to 2007.
  • One of the biggest changes made to Silvermoon is that it’s being uninstanced and fully re-integrated into the continent. As a result, Silvermoon will finally work like a modern city.
  • In the Midnight expansion, we’ll be re-uniting elven tribes to fight against the void.
  • For years, players have wondered why Silvermoon was stuck in the past. With Midnight, they’re finally getting a closure.
  • The Midnight expansion is all about contracts: light and the void, past and the present.
