About

World of Warcraft is a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game (MMORPG) set in the Warcraft universe. Players step into the roles of Warcraft heroes to explore, quest, and adventure across a vast world. As a “massively multiplayer” experience, it supports thousands of players in the same world—whether they’re grouping up for adventures or battling one another in large-scale conflicts as they form friendships, build alliances, and compete for power and glory.

Storyline

As Thrall’s new Horde set out to settle the arid land of Durotar, it expanded its ranks by inviting the undead Forsaken to join the orcs, tauren, and trolls. At the same time, dwarves, gnomes, and the ancient night elves pledged themselves to a renewed Alliance led by the human kingdom of Stormwind. When Stormwind’s king, Varian Wrynn, mysteriously disappeared, Highlord Bolvar Fordragon ruled as Regent. His service was compromised by the black dragon Onyxia, who used manipulation and mind control while disguised as a human noblewoman. As heroes uncovered Onyxia’s schemes, ancient enemies rose across the world, threatening Horde and Alliance alike.
