Developer Blizzard Entertainment shared a new blog post on the official site of MMORPG World of Warcraft: Dragonflight to reveal the upcoming update. Following the release of Fury Incarnate, players are in for Patch 10.2: Guardians of the Dream that promises to bring a lot of new content.
“When Guardians of the Dream arrives, champions will be tasked to protect a new zone—The Emerald Dream, engage in new Public Events—Superbloom and Emerald Bounty, build Renown with the Dream Wardens for unique rewards, and save the new World Tree from the Fyrakk’s forces in a new Raid—Amirdrassil, the Dream’s Hope.”
But even that is not all! The large additions such as the new zone or the new raid are joined by smaller updates such as new PvP & Mythic+ Seasons, Blood Elf customization, Dragonriding updates, class talent updates for Rogues & Demon Hunters and more. Check out the video above as Assistant Lead Encounter Designer Taylor Sanders and Senior Narrative Designer Anne Stickney, and Community Manager Bethany Stout, take you on a journey through the new zone and additions.
The story continues where Fury Incarnate left off. A special seed, planted by Tyrande, has grown into a new World Tree and is on the verge of crossing over into Azeroth. Fyrakk and his forces, including his new allies—the Druids of the Flame, move among the roots of the World Tree, inflaming the Dream denizens as they attempt to tear into the Emerald Dream to infuse the heart of the World Tree with fire and use it as a conduit to spread eternal flames throughout Azeroth.
The upcoming raid, Amirdrassil, consists of nine bosses – including a Dragonriding encounter! – leading to the ultimate showdown with Fyrakk.
