Dragonflight devs promise ‘more story, more content, more rewards’ over six content updates.
The team behind World of Warcraft: Dragonflight has pledged to release six new content patches coming in 2023, which will see new quests, zones, raids, as well as the introduction of trading posts.
Dragonflight brought with it a range of new features, from new zones and quests to the noble art of dragonriding. However, developer Blizzard Entertainment knows it has a way to go to elevate the expansion to the prestige level of 2016’s Legion. In an official announcement (opens in new tab), Blizzard says it intends to “nurture” Azeroth’s “living world” in 2023 by dropping six new content patches as part of a structured system of updates.
As well as “new zones, raids, and seasonal rewards,” we can expect the introduction of new Trading Posts where players can earn cosmetic rewards by completing monthly quests. There is also a new quest campaign in the works, set in the Forbidden Reach, which will give us an origin story for Dragonflight’s new dragon-humanoid hybrid race, the Dracthyr.
“We know that the merit of an expansion hinges on the sustained quality of its entire arc,” Blizzard Entertainment Executive Producer Holly Longdale wrote in the announcement.
