Doing so requires you to completely fill in the “Mystery Board,” a grid featuring 99 different achievement-style tasks. To make matters even more complicated, the game doesn’t inform you how to solve any of these mysteries, you just have to stumble on the solutions yourself through trial and error. But hey, if you're not up for that grind, scroll on down for our guide to unlocking all 99 squares on the Mystery Board. […]

Microsoft has once again reiterated that the acquisition of Activision-Blizzard-King was mostly about securing a foothold in the mobile market. The highly-debuted megadeal between Microsoft and Activision-Blizzard-King was finally completed last month. After having announced the merger in January of 2022, the deal became a rather long journey with plenty of discussions, regulator blockings, court hearings, and whatnot. While many have argued that the purchase was about obtaining IP, Xbox head Phil Spencer has also said that the main reason for the deal was about mobile gaming. Yesterday, at the Wells Fargo TMT Summit Conference, Xbox Chief Financial Officer Tim […]
Just ten days after the release of the long-awaited Guardians of the Dream update (which added the Emerald Dream zone, the Amirdrassil raid, and a new season to the MMORPG), World of Warcraft fans were treated to a preview of the next major patch. Blizzard revealed that it will be called Seeds of Renewal. While there is no release window yet, the developer outlined several major additions, chiefly the availability of follower AI to fill in missing characters during Normal dungeons. From the PTR notes: Follower Dungeons are available for all 8 of the original Dragonflight dungeons on Normal difficulty. […]
For a long time, the World of Warcraft vanilla experience was relegated to private servers (such as Nostalrius, which was shut down) until Blizzard finally decided to accept the community's feedback and create World of Warcraft Classic. Launched in August 2019, WoW Classic turned out to be a big success and is considered to be nearly as popular as the modern version of the MMORPG. As such, Blizzard has continued to dedicate resources to this version of the game, advancing Classic through the various expansions: The Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King. At BlizzCon 2023, it was announced […]
Blizzard Entertainment is now part of the larger Xbox family following Microsoft’s $69 billion purchase of Activision Blizzard, but what does that mean for the future? This past weekend saw the first in-person BlizzCon in years, but the show was still oriented around a direction put in place by previous Acti-Blizz boss Bobby Kotick – one very much focused on exploiting dependable moneymakers like World of Warcraft, Overwatch, and Diablo. While those franchises will likely remain Blizzard’s bread and butter in the near term, some changes may be on the way. In a new interview with The Verge, Blizzard president […]
Over the near-twenty years that World of Warcraft has been on the market, the topic of a console port has come up again and again, only to never materialize. By now, most fans might have given up on the concept, but Blizzard is actually still keen on the possibility. At BlizzCon 2023, Gamesradar spoke to Holly Longdale, formerly designer and executive producer on the EverQuest franchise and now vice president and executive producer of World of Warcraft at Blizzard, about porting the long-standing MMORPG to console platforms. While Longdale didn't make any promises, she expressed genuine interest and pointed out […]
