With the success of the last installation of World of Warcraft, Blizzard Entertainment is now preparing to release another fine addition to the ever growing and evolving Warcraft universe: World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King.

Warcraft as a strategy game began with the PS platform in the nineties, followed by the equally successful installation of the PC version which was done away beautifully with two expansion packs. With the expansion pack Frozen Throne for the PC platform, Blizzard Entertainment continues the story with the latest installation for the MMORPG version of the game.

World of Warcraft is a massively multiplayer online role playing game, which integrates the already existing Warcraft universe (environments, story lines, characters) with the perspective of a player. Thousands of player from around the globe can now get in on the action as they battle with each other and formidable worlds that World of Warcraft offers.
Wrath of the Lich King as of now has not been released to the mass market. According to the techs at Blizzard Entertainment, the expansion pack is still undergoing final revamps before final release in the US and most of Europe.

However, this won’t stop us in describing the exciting new features of the game- which are now hot potatoes for people who can’t wait to get their hands on the assuredly collector’s edition WoW: Wrath of the Lich King coming their way.

One of the most notable features of the MMORPG game now is the entrance of a new character class for all ten races available in World of Warcraft: the formidable death knight. The Death Knight as a character in Warcraft lore entered with the installation of Frozen Throne for Warcraft III for the PC platform.

Arthas was the first true Death Knight, under the sway of the Blade that destroyed his soul. The story continues to this day- the death knight character class would be under the dictatorship of the Lich King until a turning point, whereas the death knight class would leave the dark king and join forces with the olden races for the final battle against the King of the Frozen Throne.

To be able to use the new hero class, a player must have two basic things: a Burning Crusade account and a character that has already progressed to at least level 55. Upon reaching level 55 at least, the player can now create a new hero class and the story will continue in that vein accordingly.

According to Blizzard Entertainment, the pinnacle of the expansion of WoW would be a final battle with the Lich King himself- which would be the test of how much the WoW player truly knows.

Another new feature for the Wrath of Lich King is focused on character development again. When a player goes past level 55 and reaches level 70, there will be a veritable cornucopia of new abilities and powers that would be made available to the player.
