World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth is the seventh expansion to Blizzard Entertainment's long-running MMORPG, released in 2018 for Windows and Mac. Following the defeat of major external threats such as the Burning Legion, the expansion shifts the central conflict inward, placing the Alliance and Horde at war with one another. The opposing faction serves as the primary antagonist during the early stages of the narrative, framing the struggle as a battle between Azeroth's own civilizations rather than against an outside force. The expansion introduced Allied Races as a new feature, with four initially unlocked through preorder. It marked a logistical first for the series by launching simultaneously across the Americas, Europe, Taiwan, Korea, and Australia/New Zealand, and set a new day-one sales record for the franchise with over 3.4 million copies sold on its debut day.
Declare Your Allegiance Azeroth paid a terrible price to end the apocalyptic march of the Legion's crusade—but even as the world's wounds are tended, it is the shattered trust between the Alliance and Horde that may prove the hardest to mend. In Battle for Azeroth, the fall of the Burning Legion sets off a series of disastrous incidents that reignites the conflict at the heart of the Warcraft saga. As a new age of warfare begins, Azeroth's heroes must set out on a journey to recruit new allies, race to claim the world's mightiest resources, and fight on several fronts to determine whether the Horde or Alliance will lead Azeroth into its uncertain future. Whoever wins the coming war will likely win a dying world thanks to the Burning Legion. Magni Bronzebeard reached out to the faction leaders and was rebuffed. So now Magni turns to the adventurers, needing help to save the world, and these chosen ones will receive a gift from the titan herself. An epic "War Campaign" arc will be woven throughout entire questing areas. The expansion pack takes place 33 years after the Dark Portal events.
