World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade Classic is on the way and we have everything you need to know about what this means as a World of Warcraft player and what's included in Burning Crusade Classic's Deluxe Edition.
Spoiler alert, there's some great stuff included...
Burning Crusade Information
Before we start, we're going to go over the basics of what Burning Crusade Classic actually is. It's essentially a re-release of World of Warcraft's Burning Crusade expansion for Blizzard's WoW Classic.
Blizzard has obviously tweaked it all a little bit and fixed a few bugs, but it should remain largely the same experience and is a huge hit of nostalgia for WoW veterans and a great chance to experience a fantastic expansion for newer WoW players. We've even been talking about which classes to play as in Burning Crusade Classic already!
The pre-expansion patch has arrived, being made available from May 18th, and the expansion itself is due to release on June 1st. This gives you time to get your hands on the Deluxe Edition but what's even in it?
