Blizzard celebrates 10-year anniversary of World of Warcraft with convention
It is hard to believe that the video game World of Warcraft is ten years old. It was released in 2004 and came before YouTube, smartphones, and AMD Athlon 64 processors. It has been around long enough for people to meet, marry, and have children who can play the game. Now, Blizzard is celebrating the game’s tenth anniversary with a convention in Anaheim.
The company’s name is on every door and the game has taken the company to new heights. Its success has been so overwhelming that analysts estimate that the game contributes half of the earnings of its parent company, Activision, and rivals Guitar Hero combined. WOW rakes in hundreds of millions of dollars each year. The PC Gaming Alliance estimates the game generates $1 billion in annual revenue.
Statue of orc riding a wolf
The 10th year of World of Warcraft is now officially a reality. This year, Blizzard Entertainment is celebrating with special gifts for its veteran players, including a statue of an orc riding a wolf. While Blizzard has yet to send out the official email to award the statue to its veterans, the MyChoice program has already sent out notifications to some players.
The statue is available exclusively to World of Warcraft players, and is located outside the Blizzard headquarters in Irvine, California. It represents an orc riding a wolf and is one of the most recognizable symbols of the game. Players who had their World of Warcraft account created within 60 days of the game’s launch will receive an email confirming their statue’s delivery.
Relive old raids in new PvP battleground
For the anniversary of World of Warcraft, Blizzard is bringing back the legendary Tarren Mill versus Southshore raids. In vanilla World of Warcraft, the battleground was a popular PvP destination where players of different factions would converge and defend their turf. Luckily, the new PvP battleground allows players to experience these classic encounters and more. The anniversary event will also include a non-combat pet, the Molten Corgi.
The anniversary event is a celebration of World of Warcraft’s tenth anniversary, and it has something for everyone. If you’re a newcomer to the game, you might find yourself missing out on party members because you’re in the wrong time zone. There are different time zones for each Realm, and it affects the availability of players. For this reason, it’s crucial to select the Realm in which you’re inviting your friends. Remember, your characters can only interact with other players in the same Realm, so choosing the Realm with your friends will ensure you have the best chance of finding others who are available to play with.
Food and drink at convention
The World of Warcraft 10 year anniversary convention featured a number of unique dining options. Food trucks parked near the main stage to satisfy hungry attendees. Thunderdrew Anniversary brown ale was served in commemorative mugs to convention-goers. Warcraft props were a main attraction of photo booth vendors, who manned their stands near the Anaheim Arena. Nearby, a DJ spun the hottest hits, and Warcraft players performed stunts for passersby.
Outside the Anaheim Convention Center, a World of Warcraft-themed party will take place to celebrate the game’s 10th anniversary. The party will kick off on Thursday, November 6, at the Anabella Hotel. There will also be free food and drink stations set up throughout the convention. Blizzard will be giving away a limited-edition Warcraft T-shirt to each and every fan who attends.
Memories of past decade
There are many reasons to love World of Warcraft. Not only is the game a nostalgic experience, but it’s also a deeply comforting one. The game hasn’t changed much, but its ethos has. While it’s still a fun game, it’s much simpler than it once was. The core of the game is canned leveling, dungeon-crawling, and equipment-upgrading.
A decade ago, Blizzard Entertainment released World of Warcraft. The game’s initial launch in North America and Europe in February 2005 received generally favorable reviews. It sold well. The developers had shipped many other games before and could afford to take a break. But when the game’s popularity waned and players began demanding expansions, they were in a panic. With so many players cramming into one zone, the server’s performance suffered.
