World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Classic Has Launched

The wait is over, heroes of Azeroth! The mists have parted, and the ancient, shrouded continent of Pandaria is now within reach. World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Classic officially launched on Tuesday, July 22nd for us here in AWST, bringing a wealth of new adventures, mysteries, and challenges to the Classic experience. First released back in 2012, the Mists of Pandaria expansion was a breath of fresh air for me. I had taken an extended break after burning out on the grind through the Cataclysm expansion and returned with some hype from the first two Kung Fu Panda movies. Now we get to experience the expansion all over again in a new era of WoW Classic progression.

Players eager to embark on this journey will find themselves stepping into a land untouched by the Cataclysm, filled with serene landscapes, fierce wildlife, and the enigmatic Pandaren. This highly anticipated expansion offers a fresh perspective on a beloved era of World of Warcraft, complete with all the content that made Mists of Pandaria a fan favourite.
