History repeats itself, and Gul’dan hasn’t abandoned his plans to force the orcs into servitude of the Burning Legion.

Blizzard has released patch 6.2 for World of Warcraft, previously only available on the Public Test Realm. The second major update to Warlords of Draenor entitled Fury of Hellfire focuses on the fate of the Iron Horde. Its remnants, having succumbed to Gul'dan, well-known to fans of Azeroth, and his Burning Legion, have taken over the Hellfire Citadel. But before the players of level 100 join the raid to face the fel orcs and demons (including Archimonde himself, who replaced Kil'Jaeden in this timeline), they will have to reach a new location – Tanaan Jungle. This, in turn, will require vessels that can be built in the new garrison improvement – the shipyard. Of course, the jungle itself will also be full of new quests, and the so-called Timewalking will allow players to take part in raids known from the first two first expansions to WoW: Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King. Since we’re mentioning raids, there will be an addition to the existing levels of difficulty – the Mythic level – which will allow to gain even more powerful items (up to level 735).

Fans of animal companions should also be satisfied as Fury of Hellfire introduces a variety of pets (including battle pets), ranging from Corrupted Nest Guard, through Ghostshell Crab and Sapphire Firefly, to Cinder Pup and Fel Pup. There are also new armor sets for PvE (Tier 18) and PvP (Warlords Season 2). The full (and rather lenghty) list can be found on the official website of the game, same as the latest hotfixes introduced on launch of Fury of Hellfire. Below you can see a video prepared by the creators, featuring the most exciting new elements.
