Northrend revisited: new Wrath of the Lich King screenshots surface

Posted Aug 15, 2007 at 7:05PM by QJ Staff Listed in: Titles, Screenshots Tags: Blizzard, Landscapes

Blizzard Entertainment's latest addition to the World of Warcraft is Wrath of the Lich King, the second official expansion to the highly regarded MMORPG. If The Burning Crusade set expansion-players against the fiery outskirts of the Outlands, this time around player's will have to don their winter gear and trek northward into the icy landscapes of Northrend. But it's not all ice and snow, as these screenshots show.

This land is not new to fans of the Warcraft franchise, for this was the same land the Human Expeditionary Fleet made landfall and discovered the cursed sword Frostmourne. 'Twas the same place where Prince Arthas met his inevitable conversion to the Scourge, and where some marooned humans still live today.

Let's revisit the northern region through the newest screenshots released, previewing what to expect when the expansion finally releases. Recognize a few locations?

i hope 70-80 is alot longer than 60-70 because that was just too short, infact i think 50-60 took me longer to do.
