Are you prepared to boldly go where no adventurer has gone before? We’ve just released a major update on the Mists of Pandaria preview website detailing nine of the new and improved dungeons that you and your friends will explore in the upcoming expansion.

The Mists of Pandaria previews just keep coming! We’ve just posted lots of info on two new Battlegrounds and five new types of foes (and friends) you’ll encounter in the new expansion.

It’s not long now until the adventure through the exotic lands of Pandaria begins. To commemorate this unique milestone, we’re going to be sharing exclusive content on our World of Warcraft Facebook page every day for twelve days until Mists of Pandaria launches.

You've ended Deathwing's destructive rampage and saved the dragonflights from extinction. Now you must unlock the mysteries of the lost continent and discover the dark secrets of Pandaria's past. Explore ancient kingdoms hidden since before the Sundering, plunder vast treasures from the depths of the forgotten vaults, and rise to defend Pandaria from the shadow of a long buried evil - before it's too late.

We’ve just released not one, but two new previews for Mists of Pandaria: a sampling of the many pandaren customization options, and a sneak peek at the Mogu'shan Vaults raid!

Check out the Mists of Pandaria preview website and get a first glimpse at one of the two new roaming world bosses: Salyis’ Warband! These extremely powerful monsters will do everything in their power to make your life more... “interesting” as you explore the mysterious continent of Pandaria.

You can now read more about the Mists of Pandaria Scenarios feature in our updated expansion preview website! Check out our sneak peek at two of the scenarios you and your friends will be able to play in Mists of Pandaria: A Brewing Storm and Greenstone Village.

Last week, Blizzard Entertainment welcomed guests from the media and official fansite community to take a look at the progress we've made with World of Warcraft's upcoming expansion, Mists of Pandaria. Read more about what they learned at the sites below.

With all of the great coverage coming out today on the upcoming expansion, we thought it’d be fun to take some of the details we’ve been revealing and relate them in practical terms. To set the scene for this article: Mists of Pandaria has been released, and as a long-time player I’ve enjoyed exploring all the new high level zones and tackled countless quests. I’ve leveled my character up to 90 and I’m logging in to play for the night. What is there to do?

This week’s been a whirlwind of news as a massive amount of information regarding the World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria expansion is now out in the wild. Much of this new content has landed on our Mists of Pandaria site, with a particular focus on the exotic sights and unusual creatures you’ll encounter as you explore the long-hidden land of the pandaren.

Last week we revealed the female pandaren mystery silhouette on our Facebook page, and today we’re pleased to be able to share with you the final image! We hope you enjoy playing a female pandaren as much as we did creating her. Stay tuned to the internet today for all the Mists of Pandaria news you can shake a bamboo stick at, as well as right here on WorldofWarcraft.com!

With development on World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria well underway, the Screenshot of the Day section on the World of Warcraft community site will now feature unique Mists of Pandaria images every day, showcasing a variety of new creatures, characters, and environments from the upcoming expansion. Be sure to stop by daily for the latest look at what’s waiting within the mists.

One design that we haven’t focused on much yet is the plan for various group buffs and debuffs. Some specs have their buffs in place and some do not. Rather than trying to describe each omission, we thought we’d just dump the whole design on you here. As with the rest of the expansion’s systems, we’re not even in beta yet, so there’s plenty of time for things to change. First, some underlying design goals, so you might understand where we’re coming from.

Our recent talent calculator changes led to some players asking questions about how character and item stats were changing, because some spell and talent tooltips suggest that changes are coming. We compiled this list to attempt to explain more of what’s coming in Mists of Pandaria.
