It's been 13 years since the original World of Warcraft: Cataclysm trailer dropped and somehow WoW Classic has already caught back up to it. But instead of re-releasing the original video, Blizzard has commissioned a team of visual effects artists, led by a well known community member, to create their own trailer for one of WoW's most pivotal expansions.
Old WoW players might recognize Hurricane, or Hurricane046 on YouTube, as the person behind the unofficial trailers for WoW that racked up more views than Blizzard's own work, and the lead on the Wrath of the Lich King Classic trailer. Now they're back with a team of animators to create a new Cataclysm Classic trailer where you see Deathwing destroying Azeroth from the eyes of the people on the ground—a perspective the original cinematic trailer didn't capture.
