Blizzard has released a launch trailer for the World of Warcraft Legion expansion that launches today.

　　To welcome players back to Azeroth, an amazing new trailer was released some hours ago. Check out the launch trailer for Legion below:

　　The demons of the Burning Legion have returned. Will you answer the heroes' call?

　　The sixth World of Warcraft expansion was officially unveiled at last year’s Gamescom. In Legion, the demonic Burning Legion has returned, seeking to call forth their fallen leader—the dark titan Sargeras.

　　As destruction rains across Azeroth, its heroes must seek salvation among the ruins of the Broken Isles, doomed center of ancient night elf civilization and birthplace of myths dating back to the world’s creation. In the face of hopeless odds, they must learn to master mighty Artifacts—legendary weapons that hold the potential to bring down the corrupted armies of the Legion—and strike an infernal pact with the dread Demon Hunters of the Illidari . . . accursed followers of the infamous Illidan the Betrayer.

　　“In World of Warcraft: Legion, the stakes for the Alliance and the Horde are higher than ever, so we’re putting some of Azeroth’s deadliest forces directly in players’ hands,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. “Whether they’re wreaking havoc as a Demon Hunter or unlocking awesome new abilities for their Artifact, players will develop their characters’ power in ways they never have before.”

　　Legion introduces the new Demon Hunter hero class, alongside new features and a new continent called ‘The Broken Isles’.

　　New Hero Class: Demon Hunter— Unleash the demon within as an all-new melee hero class gifted with preternatural mobility—and the ability to metamorphose into hellish new forms.

　　New Feature: Artifact Weapons— Smite the Legion with legendary weapons of lore. Earn Artifact power to unlock abilities and traits, and customize your weapon to suit your needs.

　　New Continent: The Broken Isles— Discover the fate of a lost night elf civilization, confront twisted fragments of the Emerald Nightmare, and hunt agents of the Legion in all-new zones.

　　New Feature: Order Hall— Whether you’re paladin or warlock, unite fellow NPC members of your class’s order to carry out missions at your command.

　　New PvP Honor System— Fight for fame, glory, and a range of new PvP-specific powers as you face the opposing faction in Arenas and Battlegrounds.

　　Boost to Level 100— Come fully prepared to battle the Legion with a level-100 character boost, and fight alongside your friends in this epic new chapter of World of Warcraft.

　　The World of Warcraft Legion expansion is launching today. At this year’s Gamescom, Blizzard already detailed the expansion’s first patch, titled ‘Return To Karazhan’.
