What's more, Legion raises World of Warcraft's level cap to 110 and introduces a new class called Demon Hunter (see below for more details on the new character). There are also new dungeons and raids to explore, as well as new artifact weapons and an Honor System.

"Dominate your foes as a Demon Hunter, an elven outcast shunned for daring to wield the terrible powers of the Legion," Blizzard said. "Exhibiting superior mobility and a preternatural sense of awareness, Demon Hunters can tap into forbidden powers at times of dire need, metamorphosing into terrifying fel forms. Focus on Havoc to demolish any who stand in your way with fiery demonic attacks, or specialize in Vengeance and go toe to toe with even the most powerful demons, withstanding massive punishment as their attacks fuel your hatred."
"Twisted satyrs, savage drogbar, and cursed Kvaldir prowl the Isles alongside the Legion's marauding army," Blizzard said. "To overcome these threats, you will claim an Order Hall unique to your character class and lead your followers on a hunt for the Pillars of Creation--the secret to Azeroth's salvation."
More information about Legion is available on the World of Warcraft website, while Blizzard will hold a developer discussion this coming Sunday, August 9, to talk more about the expansion.
Blizzard has not announced a release date for Legion. Check out some screenshots and concept art images from Legion in the gallery below.

Previous World of Warcraft expansions have included: The Burning Crusade (2007), Wrath of the Lich King (2008), Cataclysm (2010), Mists of Pandaria (2012), and Warlords of Draenor (2014).
With World of Warcraft subscribers sliding, a new expansion could help bring people back. After all, history has shown that new expansions tend to do just that.
