World of Warcraft patch to bring cross-realm raids

Battlegrounds and raids available to play cross-realm.

Patch 4.3.2 for World of Warcraft will allow users to participate in cross-realm raids, Blizzard has announced.

Players will be able to participate with Real ID friends in normal or heroic raids as well as Battlegrounds.

Previously Blizzard introduced the ability for users to form cross-realm parties with Real ID friends, but this will be the first time where raids and Battlegrounds will be available as well.

With Patch 4.3 just having hit, we had the chance to speak to the MMO's lead quest designer Dave Kosak about how Blizzard plans to take on 2012 this week. Read it all here.
