World Of Warcraft's Pre-Expansion Patch Draws Near, Demon Hunter "No Later Than August 17"

Blizzard Entertainment announced today that World of Warcraft: Legion's pre-expansion patch is "coming soon." We already knew that, but this time, it's soon enough that the company has felt the need to outline plans for the game between now and the launch of Legion. In fact, according to a user on the World of Warcraft subreddit, the patch may even be launching as soon as July 12th.

Once the pre-expansion patch launches, players will be able to access changes to the Transmogrification Collections system and classes, as well as anything else listed in the lengthy set of patch notes, immediately. Players who have pre-purchased Legion will be given early access to the new Demon Hunter class no later than August 17th. Burning Legion Invasions and the beginning of the Broken Shore storyline will be added sometime before the expansion's launch.
