World of Warcraft Classic made some big announcements at the Warcraft 30th Direct today, including adding fresh 20th Anniversary Edition Realms servers to Classic and announcing the Mists of Pandaria Classic expansion that will be coming soon to the game. Both of these have been highly requested features, particularly the restart of classic Classic servers, as many in the community have been wishing for a way to play WoW from a pre-Cataclysm period. Both of these exciting steps will add new experiences for players.
As part of the 30th anniversary of Warcraft, Blizzard held a special Warcraft Direct with announcements from all games in the Warcraft universe (via the World of Warcraft YouTube channel). Among the lineup was some big news from WoW Classic. The newly announced 20th Anniversary Edition Realms for World of Warcraft Classic will provide a fresh start to Classic Era with a return to vanilla WoW content beginning next week on November 21, 2024. The upcoming Mists of Pandaria Classic expansion for WoW Classic's progression servers will be coming to the game in the summer of 2025.
