Blizzard have released a very exciting trailer for the upcoming 4.2 patch for World of Warcraft, largely showing off the hot new raid the patch adds to the game. “Hot” being the operative word. In the Firelands you will fight Beth’tilac (big fiery spider), Lord Rhyolith (magma giant), Alysrazor (big fiery bird), Shannox (fiery naga guy with two fiery dogs) and, yes, well, you get the idea. It’s not just this raid, of course. As always, the WoW Insider has a comprehensive feature listing. Look, there are a couple of new quest hubs and a new legendary quest, too.

Me, I’ve never really like lava-themed levels in games. They just make me feel like I’m playing through a heartburn advert.(more…)
