In appreciation of the ongoing support and enthusiasm of the
Chinese World of Warcraft audience, The9 and Blizzard
Entertainment, Inc. announced yesterday that World of
Warcraft players in China would not need to purchase a new CD
key to play Blizzard Entertainment's upcoming expansion, World
of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade?.
Per this plan, everyone in China who has ever purchased a CD key
for World of Warcraft will be able to install the expansion content
as well without paying for an extra CD key.
World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade will add a
tremendous amount of new content to Blizzard Entertainment's
award-winning massively multiplayer online role-playing game.
Exciting new features that World of Warcraft players
will be able to enjoy after installing the expansion include the
entire new continent of Outland, two new playable races -- the
Blood Elves and the Draenei -- flying mounts, the new jewelcrafting
profession, advancement to the new level cap of 70 -- complete with
powerful new talents and abilities -- new battlegrounds, dungeons,
quests, and rewards, a revamped PvP system, and much more.
