World of Warcraft’s new expansion reveal: Watch it here
Blizzard Entertainment plans to reveal the next major expansion for World of Warcraft on Tuesday, April 19, during a livestream that will kick off at 12 p.m. EDT/9 a.m. PDT on the Warcraft YouTube and Twitch channels. Blizzard says the stream will offer “a sneak peek at what’s next for the heroes of Azeroth.”
World of Warcraft’s new expansion will pick up where Shadowlands, Blizzard’s eighth expansion pack for its Warcraft massively multiplayer online role-playing game, left off in a controversial state.

The latest expansion for Hearthstone, Voyage to the Sunken City, which launched last week, was revealed in March.
