World of Warcraft: Cataclysm?

July 2, 2009

Is Cataclysm the name of the next world of warcraft expansion? All signs are pointing towards yes! As of June 26th, Blizzard has filed trademark registrations for the name Cataclysm for computer games, paper-based products, and online games. Also, on the same date, wowcataclysm.com was registered.

With Wrath of the Lich King coming to an end when players face off with Arthas, could this mean a whole new cataclysmic event in warcraft lore will go down? The last cataclysm that happened was the “Great Sundering” which was when the world of Azeroth was split into the continents that WoW players travel on today. Perhaps this expansion could have nothing to do with a new event, but take us back in time to see the events that made Azeroth what it is today.

Or… it could just be a trading card expansion.

Expect to learn more in the coming weeks, if not, Blizzcon is only 6 weeks away. If you remember, Wrath of the Lich King FAQ was leaked way before blizzcon.
