Everything we know about Burning Crusdae Classic & The Closed Beta

The Burning Crusade is coming back to World of Warcraft via WoW Classic and the Pre-Patch update is here. Here’s everything we know about the WoW Classic TBC Beta and where we are at the moment.

LATEST – Pre-Patch Update Live Now

We might be a little bit past the WoW Classic TBC Closed Beta, but there’s still a lot to talk about. The latest title update is a pretty big one and it’s set the stage for the return of the Dark Portal in a couple of weeks.

When everything does kick-off, though, Blizzard is going to give you the option of picking to play between World of Warcraft Classic and Burning Crusade Classic. IF you don’t fancy it, though, you can still play a pre-patch WoW Classic.

” World of Warcraft Classic era realms are new but retain the same names as before and exist as they did prior to the pre-expansion patch.”

Update Raises Level Cap to 70, Adds Heroics, Eye of the Storm

The WoW Classic TBC beta is pushing into a new chapter after a big update has pushed the level cap from 64 to 70, added in Heroics, and PVP with the Eye of the Storm battleground.

Players will now be able to test some pieces of the TBC end game, so it’s more important than ever to check to see if you got into the WoW Classic TBC Beta!

This date could easily end up as the start of the Classic TBC beta, prepatch, or even the expansion’s release date!

Changes

For players that were around for the original launch of The Burning Crusade, is the WoW Classic TBC beta worth it?

WoW Classic TBC will make some changes from The Burning Crusade – and one area we expect to see plenty more changes is with the Drums of Battle, an item that will take over PVE throughout the expansion.
