It's finally here!

Blizzard unveiled the introduction video for the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion, Wrath of Lich King at the Leipzig Games Convention earlier today, and it's as deliciously epic as you'd expect it to be.

This intro takes a shift from previous World of Warcraft intros, and displays a set events instead of a montage of different things. In it, we get to see the Death Knight Arthas looking like his generally badass self as he revives one of the blue dragonkin from under the Matron Protectorate in Nothrend, whilst his undead army stands watch.

Enjoy!

I watched it on their main website and to be honest, i dont really like it, unlike the other two, this one just doesnt seem to show anything except for the bad guy in the ice and his army, the talking is ace but thats about it for me

I want to fight the undead dagron please!!!! xD

I love it, It's like a proper intro rather than things just thrown together.

I'm extremely fond of myself.

I'm honestly surprised they moved away from the "montage of characters" approach, but in the context of this game, it makes sense; its set in Northrend, it about Arthas, and it has Death Knights.

And that's exactly what you get!

Not to mention its just pure epic.

Yes, it was a typo... that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

No comments on the videos? Hahaha.

Well, you can't argue with a big-ass dragon, but as I'm not a WoW player, I can't really tell how relevant this is going to be to the actual game. In games where you're not the main character, and there are thousands of other people playing, plot lines don't really mean as much, I feel, because you personally don't progress the story.

(I didn't comment before, because I didn't wanna be negative in a thread that I knew next to nothing about)
