World of Warcraft Classic

World of Warcraft Classic is a 2019 massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. Running alongside the main version of the game, Classic recreates World of Warcraft in the vanilla state it was in before the release of its first expansion, The Burning Crusade. It was announced at BlizzCon 2017 and was released globally August 26, 2019.

Various additional versions of Classic have since been released, including progression servers that have advanced sequentially through re-releases of the game’s first four expansions, seasonal servers featuring new or altered content distinct from the original game, a "20th Anniversary Edition" re-release of the original Classic and permadeath Hardcore servers.
