The star of theWorld of WarcraftSummer Sale is the Midsummer Night’s Pack. In addition to the adorable new Lil’ Ursoc pet, the cosmetics pack includes nine other items added over the last couple of years, for a total of three pets, four mounts, two outfit transmogs, and a toy. The pack costs $65, down from the $180 of the original items, though the price automatically adjusts if a player already has items from the pack.
Many items on theWorld of Warcraftdigital store are discounted from the sale as well. All digital editions ofShadowlandsare half off, meaningnewWorld of Warcraftplayerscan get full access to the game for $20 right now. Likewise, the Dark Portal Pass and Deluxe Edition ofBurning Crusade Classicare also 50% off. Most other cosmetics in the store are discounted up to 50% off, and many game services have a 30% discount. The sale is scheduled to last until July 4th.
The timing of this sale could not be better forWorld of Warcraft. With severalsales and promotions advertisingWoWPatch 9.2.5and cross-faction play, many former players are curious about whatWorld of Warcrafthas to offer.
Some players have questions about the Lil’ Ursoc minion, however. While undeniably cute, the bear god Ursoc was permanently killed off during theArdenweald Afterlives short beforeShadowlands. The presence of this minion has led many to believe it was originally made for a cut sidequest where players might have been able to resurrect the fallen Wild God.
Nevertheless,World of Warcraftplayers have a lot to buzz about right now. With pre-orders now live,World of Warcraftannounced its intention to shipDragonflightbefore year’s end. While manyWorld of Warcraftfans are skeptical about whether it will be able to follow through with its plan, the pre-order Collector’s Edition rewards and the Summer Sale have certainly gotten people talking aboutWoW.
