Blizzard has teased on Twitter that Jimothy, the viral raccoon, will be coming soon to Azeroth.
Blizzard also shared how the new pet will look in-game as well!
Is this an out-of-season April Fools’ joke?
Maybe! But probably not, as Blizzard has replied to a couple of tweets confirming the new fur friend.
Who’s Jimothy???
Jimothy is a wild raccoon living in Seattle, WA. Jimothy became a viral meme overnight a couple of days ago from an Instagram video showing him in the wild. It is believed that Jimothy has an unusual spinal deformity. You can learn more about him in his Wikipedia Article.
When Can I Get Jimothy???
Blizzard said that already. Soon!
Jokes apart, Jimothy should be added to the game in the coming weeks, as the preview on Twitter already showed his model in-game. Maybe it will be an addition for Patch 12.1, but as the patch is already being prepared for its launch, it might be an addition for 12.1.5.
