New World of Warcraft: The War Within cinematic released

Developers from Blizzard have released a new cinematic for the World of Warcraft: The War Within expansion. The video showed the race of blue haronirs, the underground world, and the spider-like nerubians.

In full accordance with the synopsis, players were shown the underground world of Azeroth, in which an unknown evil lurked. Gamers received the video ambiguously: at the time of writing, there were 5 thousand dislikes for 13 thousand likes (visible with the Return YouTube Dislike extension). The main criticism was the atmosphere of the trailer, which does not correspond to the spirit of World of Warcraft.

Here is what some YouTube users wrote in the comments:

«Avatar 3 looks incredible,» — TheIllusionRecords.

«The scene with the army is more like Diablo 4,» — SevenHalcyon.

«Someone tell the Crusaders they're in the wrong game,» KushanGaming.

«Diablo 4 paladin walks into the wrong office,» lrak25.

«Avatar 3, finally!», brandontobias1138.

Recall that The War Within add-on will be released on August 26. Along with it, the game will get a special mode for arachnophobes.

The Turtle WoW team recently partially ported World of Warcraft to Unreal Engine 5. Fans plan to port all the content of the vanilla game to the new engine. Also, last month, one of the industry veterans left the studio.
