At Gamescom 2025, I had the opportunity to go hands-on with World of Warcraft's biggest new feature it's had in years.

The veteran MMORPG has entered its second decade as of this year, and remains the top option for subscription-based, persistently online games. Paying subscribers get regular massive content updates which add new dungeons, quests, story beats, and other features every few weeks — with even bigger premium expansions dropping roughly every 18 months.
