WoW: Cataclysm – Twilight Highlands
Filed under: MMORPG News, Screenshots, World Of Warcraft | No Comments »
Blizzard has released details regarding another new zone coming to World of Warcraft with the upcoming release of the Cataclysm expansion, the Twilight Highlands. It is important to note that this area is not in any way related to the Twilight film or book series. There are, as far as I can tell, no vampires involved. Rather, the name stems from the control of the area by the Twilight’s Hammer cultists. WoW players will know these as the nutters who are usually hanging around locations relevant to the Old Gods, and this is the reason that they have moved into the highlands. Apparently, the twisted and broken landscape and constant warfare suffusing the zone appeals to them, and they want to make the rest of Azeroth the same way. As ever, I’m sure it will be up to you heroes to foil their evil schemes.
Speaking of constant warfare, the other denizens of the Twilight Highlands include the Wildhammer dwarves, who will be aligned with the Alliance, and the Dragonmaw orcs, who will be aligned with the Horde. Undoubtedly, most of the quests each faction gives will be based on working against the opposing group, and that suggests there might even be some opportunities for contextual PvP.
Take a look at the intriguing screenshots of the area above, or visit the official site for more information.
