BlizzCon Countdown: Northrend? - 7.29.2007

Five days until BlizzCon.

Well, we can just about confirm that the next expansion is Northrend. We've all seen the Northrend files in WoW Model Viewer, the leaked maps (which may be true or not), and now we have a new piece of evidence...

According to WoW Insider, an "anonymous tipster" sent them a note stating that the Video Games Live orchestra has received their sheet music for the final performance at BlizzCon. Three pieces of the sheet music have been named "Northrend 1, 2, and 3." Apparently, the track doesn't appear in any game surrounding the Warcraft universe. So, everything now points to Northrend.

That's right people, Northrend, whether it's the only new continent or not, will be in the next expansion for World of Warcraft.
