'World Of Warcraft: Legion' To Release More Updates; Blizzard Promises No 'Content Drought,' Announces 'Return To Karazhan' At Gamescom
Jazz RosinBlizzard aims to give "World of Warcraft" players a steady stream of contents and updates once its new "Legion" expansion drops at the end of the month.
This assurance was given by the developer during its scheduled stream at Gamescom. True to its word, Blizzard has already prepared a patch for the latest expansion even before it has launched.
Patch 7.1, also known as "Return to Karazhan," features the comeback of the fan favorite area, MMO Champion reported.
Karazhan was featured as a level 70, ten-player raid instance in "World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade," and will now appear as a large five-player dungeon in the "Legion" expansion.
The "epic dungeon" will feature nine of the 11 original bosses, according to Game Revolution. Players can still access the old Karazhan after the patch.
Apart from the new dungeon, Patch 7.1 will also include outdoor content for non-raiders, which will be associated with Suramar and pushes forward the Nightfallen story.

The most surprising thing about the announcement is that the latest patch is already ready to deploy, shortly after "Legion" comes out. Blizzard said that the patch has been tested internally and will hit the game right after the expansion drops.
Blizzard promises that there will be no "content drought" this time around, something that happened with previous expansions "Warlords of Draenor" and "Mists of Pandaria." At the same time, the developer said that the team will not rush an expansion, and will make sure to release it when ready.
The developer looks to make up for its previous mistakes, promising a steady stream of content following the latest expansion. Blizzard has assured players that raid tiers should last around 4 to 5 months, and will make sure that players will not run out of things to do.
"World of Warcraft: Legion" will be released on August 30, while Patch 7.1 "Return to Karazhan" follows shortly after.
