The epic battle between Horde and Alliance is being brought to the big screen next year, but you don’t have to wait that long to get your hands on a piece of the Warcraft film. If you had the chance to visit the Blizzard booth at gamescom 2015, you may have seen some of the exclusive weapon props from the movie on display. Now, we’re giving you the chance to take one home!

Up for grabs is an iconic Alliance shield from the film that would take pride of place in any Warcraft fan’s collection. To enter to win this rare loot, share a photo of your best battle stance on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram using the tags #WarcraftMovie and #BlizzGC2015. You’ll have one week to submit your pics—be sure to share them by August 16. The owner of the most impressive and creative battle stance will walk away with this extraordinary prize.

Last week we unveiled World of Warcraft: Legion, the next chapter in the Warcraft saga, live from gamescom. If you’ve already watched the original announcement and want to learn more about the expansion, check out this discussion with our development team in the video below, which was streamed live from gamescom on Sunday, August 9.

Through Monday, August 10, Pet Battle experience gains are increased by +200%. There’s never been a better time to get out there and level up your mighty minions!

Before you head out into the wild with your lower-level wild things, make sure you pick up the quest “The Very Best”. Because you’re the best – around – you’ll want to queue up for PvP Pet Battles with a team of three level-25 pets. After only five wins during the event, you’ll be rewarded with an Ultimate Battle-Training Stone, which means another level 25 is on its way to your collection.

A few days ago, we listed some of the most-favored Battle Pets in the game and asked you to choose only one. There’s still time to cast your vote!

What’s your team for PvP Pet Battles? We’d like to know, so tell us about it in the comments below.

A great burning shadow falls over Azeroth once more—World of Warcraft: Legion has been unveiled!

In this dire new chapter of the World of Warcraft saga, the great enemy of the Horde and the Alliance—the demonic Burning Legion—has returned. As destruction rains across Azeroth, its heroes must seek salvation among the ruins of the mythic Broken Isles, ancient seat of a lost night elf civilization—and site of the accursed Tomb of Sargeras, which now serves as a gateway to endless Legion worlds.

To combat the armies of the Legion, Azeroth’s heroes will need to achieve unprecedented heights of power, securing mighty Artifacts—class-specific, highly customizable weapons forged in the fires of lore. They’ll also join forces with unlikely allies in the form of an all-new hero class, the vengeful Demon Hunter, and unify champions of their cause at their class’s Order Hall. Legion also empowers players to boost one character to level 100, making it so anyone can join the battle against the Legion alongside their friends.

Legion also features a new PvP Honor system, a new level cap of 110, new Dungeons and Raids, and much more. For more information, check out the official press release, and visit the new Legion website for screenshots, feature details, concept art, the announcement trailer, and more.
