Blizzard is creating World of Warcraft Classic servers

At Blizzcon 2017 Blizzard has revealed that they are creating official “Classic” WOW servers, bringing the world’s largest MMO back into its original iteration, before many of the game’s original zones were irreparably changed by the events of each of the game’s expansion, most notably the cataclysm. 

This announcement comes after Blizzard closed down several providers of “unofficial” vanilla WOW servers, showcasing that Blizzard wants to appease their fanbase by providing a legitimate option to play classic/vanilla WOW, taking advantage of the obvious demand for the service. 

  

We’re pleased to announce the development of a “classic server” option for World of Warcraft. We’ll have more information to share in the future.

 

 

At this time not much is known about Blizzard’s classic WOW servers, or if these new servers will contain any upgrades over its original counterparts either technically or digitally. Remember, this is classic WOW, which does not necessarily mean vanilla/day-1 WOW.
