World of Warcraft Dragonflight, the next WoW expansion coming in 2022, has been officially announced. The new WoW expansion will lead players to the Dragon Isles, where the dragonflights of Azeroth have returned. Something mysterious is going on in these ancient islands, and it’s up to us, players, to unravel their secrets. Read on to learn about the new class and race in Dragonflight, the new talent system and professions revamp, zones, dungeons, release date, and more.

Dragonflight New Race and Class Dracthyr Evoker

The most prominent new feature of the new expansion is the Dracthyr Evoker. Dracthyr Evoker is “World of Warcraft’s first-ever playable race-and-class combo”. This means that each Dracthyr is Evoker. Here are some of the main Dracthyr Evokers features:

• Fully customizable two forms – Humanoid and Draconic
• Unique new into story experience
• Playable by both Horde and Alliance
• Can be played as mid-range DPS with claws and fiery breath attacks (Devastation) or as a Healer with the magic of renewal (Preservation)
• Dracthyr Evoker can empower their abilities by charging up

WoW Dragonflight Dragonriding

Dragonriding is a brand new way of areal movement which will be introduced in the new expansion. Players will be able to unlock four new Dragon Isles Drakes. Dragon Isles Drakes are new customizable mounts that possess special moves. Furthermore, players will also be able to hone their skills by advancing their new Dragonriding skill tree.

WoW Dragonflight New Continent and Zones

In World of Warcraft: Dragonflight we are flying to a brand new area – The Dragon Isles. Currently, we know five new zones that players will be able to visit. These are The Waking Shores, Ohn’ahran Plains, The Azure Span, Thaldraszus, and Forbidden Reach.

“The Dragon Isles are the ancestral home of the dragonflights of Azeroth,” reads the official description. “When the world was broken apart in the Great Sundering, magic drained away and the land went dormant. As the Dragon Isles awaken, so too do old feuds and long-dormant threats.”

WoW Dragonflight New Talent System, Professions Revamp, HUD changes, & More

Aside from all the new elements, the new expansion also brings a host of changes, improvements, and overhauls. The new Talent System will allow you to gain talent points when levelling up, which you can then use in two talent trees – The Class talent tree and the Specialization tree. The HUD (Heads Up Display) will receive a plethora of changes which will give players an opportunity to “move, tweak, and personalize UI elements like never before”. This all is, of course, just the tip of the iceberg, as there is tons of other new content, including new raids, dungeons, and much more.
