WoW China


It's a region with a really dense and strong MMORPG fanbase - how could Blizzard have left the Orient out of the picture? Well, players in the Far East will now have something to look forward to; it's just been confirmed that the WoWThe Burning Crusade expansion will also be blazing its way to the regions of Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau.

Blizzard recently announced on the WoW site that a deal to this end has already been sealed with their local partner, Soft-World, who will also be handling the operation and distribution of the expansion. Soft-World will also be providing community and customer support for that region. What's more, localization of the game into Traditional Chinese is already underway, and they're planning to make it available to the public shortly after TBC's launch in January.

In the meantime, talks are still ongoing with The9 who may or may not be handling TBC in mainland China, so stay tuned.
