Players who purchase the game will receive a 100 boost for a character and players that pre-order the game will receive at least seven days of early access to the demon hunter class before it’s official release.
Tech Times reports that the expansion is already in the alpha testing phase. “Legion” is added to the alpha all the time for players to dive in and try out.
The expansion raises the existing level cap from 100 to 110, features artifact weapons for each class specialization, includes a new area on Azeroth called the Broken Isles, and introduces the demon hunter hero class that stars at level 98.
“Legion” will also include a five-man dungeon and two raids. The new dungeon will be called the Maw of Souls and it takes place on a massive ship that is navigating the Vyrkul afterlife.
Vyrkuls are like Vikings as their culture and environments are heavily influenced by Norse mythology.
To reach the Maw of Souls, players start on land before being transported to the hull of the ship known as the Naglfar. The Naglfar is actually filled with all the typical “WoW” goodness such as boss battles, plenty of trash mobs and loot.
However, the final boss might take players by surprise. Once players reach the end, a massive Kraken woman appears and starts destroying the ship with her tentacles.
