Battleground Blitz in The War Within - New Seasonal Toy and Title for High-Rated Characters

Microsoft has revealed the next batch of titles coming to Xbox Game Pass for console, PC and Xbox Cloud Gaming.

Warning: Spoilers for World of Warcraft: The War Within below.

Blizzard held a Content Creator Summit and we participated in a group interview where a couple of kindly devs addressed questions from Content Creators. The devs for this interview were:

The scarecrow-inspired transmog from The War Within has received some enhancements--a claw and back piece. Previously the set looked a bit autumnal, if benign, but with these additions the set takes on a darker fantasy vibe.

Players looking to race through new content might have a bit of a headstart with new Enchantments coming in The War Within — both for Mount Speed and Character Speed! Some particularly interesting Enchantments caught our eye while datamining in The War Within: While most of these Enchantments add the Speed tertiary stat to player character speed, one Enchantment seems to offer an increase in Mounted speed — Cavalry's March. Players have loved effects such as Crusader Aura which increase Mounted speed, and having even a small boost on your Boots would be a welcome gift for players that don't necessarily worry about mix-maxing for raiding or other content.

A new Allied Race means new dances! We previewed the new Male Earthen Allied Race dance on social media but felt it was worth a full article of its own.

It's been a busy week in WoW and here's Blizzard's recap of the awesome events that happened this last week.

Players looking to tackle the toughest content in The War Within are likely all too familiar with the preparation needed for raids, PvP, and Mythic +. To fully unlock your potential, you aren't just running into an instance portal full speed into a pack of enemies — you're toting a full bag of consumables along with you to provide every edge possible. The War Within will be no different, offering players both new and more familiar consumables to work with: everything from enchantments to flasks and potions will be on a raider's To-Do list before that weekly lockout comes around.

The first The War Within Alpha added only a few toys, mostly tied to professions and Warbands. As it is the first build, it is likely that many more will become available later.
