World of Warcraft: Midnight launch inches closer

The World of Warcraft: Midnight closed alpha test kicked off just four weeks ago. At that same time, rumours of a February launch date emerged and now, that release date looks even more likely, as Blizzard is quickly moving on to beta testing.

World of Warcraft: Midnight has wrapped up alpha testing. Next, Blizzard will be testing the beta build of the game throughout November and December, after that, Blizzard will close the testing servers and put the finishing touches on the expansion ahead of its planned release.

While the release date for World of Warcraft: Midnight has not yet been announced, the expansion is expected to release by February 26th next year.

World of Warcraft: Midnight is the second expansion in the Worldsoul Saga, a planned trilogy of expansions that began with The War Within back in 2024. Midnight is the second chapter in this on-going story arc and will introduce a host of fundamental changes to the game in an effort to simplify the need for third-party mods and to reduce the complexity of playing certain classes.

The final expansion in this trilogy is set to be called The Last Titan, and if Blizzard keeps up with its current cadence, it should drop sometime in 2028.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
