Apparently, Blizzard will give gamers all previously released “WoW” expansions, as well as one month of game time and an exclusive in-game item, when they buy a ticket to see the film.
While the survey itself does not say the base game is included, but it is possible that it is already given. As of this time, it is just an idea that Blizzard is seriously contemplating. The contents could change between now and when the film finally hits the theaters.
Brian Holinka, the game designer of Blizzard Entertainment, confirmed that it is possible that the film’s release may draw new players to “World of Warcraft.”
He explained that the movie would be more of a broadening exposure of the universe to everyone.
He added that their focus is still in the game because whether the movie is there or not, the expansion and the quality of the gameplay experience and content are the factors that shall help people stick around and play the game.
But he did admit that the movie will certainly get a lot of people excited about the game. He said that it would probably turn a lot of people to the game’s upcoming expansion pack too and that will be a good thing for the game and Blizzard.
