World of Warcraft is an MMO that has been in existence for nearly two decades now. It was initially released in 2004 and went global in 2005, and Blizzard has continuously added new content and expansions to grow the game.

Dragonflight is the next major expansion announced since the release of Shadowlands in 2020. While not all the details have been announced, Blizzard has given out a lot of important information to the players.


World of Warcraft: Dragonflight brings dragons and new content

World of Warcraft: Dragonflight will take players to the Dragon Isles as they will be able to play a new race and class combo in the form of powerful Dracthyr Evokers. The latest events will see mythical forces brew up trouble in the Dragon Isles, which has led the dragons to call on the heroes to solve the crisis.

Dracthyr Evokers will allow players to tinker flexibly with their roles as they can switch between damage dealers and healers. Players will be able to use their dragons to do damage while they can resort to their mystical abilities to heal their allies.

As for the dragons, each user will receive a new flight option with a drake companion. They can use these creatures to travel and fight with a chance to train them as they proceed through the expansion.

The President of Blizzard Entertainment, Mike Ybarra, had promising words for fans about the upcoming World of Warcraft: Dragonflight expansion.

"Players have been eager to revisit World of Warcraft's high-fantasy roots, and they're going to find just that in Dragonflight, with a deeper exploration of Warcraft's iconic dragons and a thrilling adventure into their legendary homeland."
