Entry to Lich King's Northrend continent to be quite the spectacle.
Speaking to PC Zone, Blizzard's Jeff Kaplan has promised that World of Warcraft players will not be disappointed when they first enter the new continent of Northrend.
"We absolutely need to make the entry to Northrend epic," said Kaplan. "...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".
Kaplan has also revealed that Wrath of the Lich King will also feature a large PvP area.
"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," explained Kaplan. "It'll be optional, but it'll be completely non-instanced, have multiple objectives, siege weapons and destructible buildings".
Blizzard hasn't announced a release date for World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, but it is expected some time this year.
