With the launch of MMORPG World of Warcraft: Dragonflight confirmed to be on November 28, 2022, it’s time to see the system requirements and consider if your machine can handle the Dragon Isles. A solid state drive (SSD) has been added to the minimum requirements.
There will be four new zones to explore, each themed around and revealing more about the respective Dragon Aspect. As the Dragon Isles awaken, so too do long-forgotten secrets, and players will traverse land and sky as they explore what the Dragon Isles has to offer. Other features of the expansion include:
- the Dracthyr race with its own specific class: Evoker
- Dragonriding that allows players to train their own drake to soar through the skies over the Dragon Isles
- Millions of customization options for drakes to allow players to create their own unique appearance
- the new talent system that hearkens back to an earlier era in WoW with its skill trees
- the updated profession system that offers players a way to “hone their craft”
- HUD and UI system updates to allow for better customization of screen space
- level cap increase to 70
