It was picked up by fans in the <a href=\"https:\/\/us.forums.blizzard.com\/en\/wow\/t\/leaked-release-date\/954765\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Blizzard forums<\/a>, but the announcement was quickly removed. Still, the evidence is roaming the internet with screenshots to prove it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blizzard has been hard at work remastering several of their classic games. At BlizzConline, the publisher mentioned the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Warcraft\/status\/1362891146633043969?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1362891146633043969%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dbltap.com%2Fposts%2Fworld-of-warcraft-the-burning-crusade-classic-release-date-when-is-it-01f4ydd1sdtp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WoW: TBC release for 2021<\/a>, but no official date was cast in stone. However, the leak seems to indicate that we\u2019re looking at a launch date of June 1, 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/05\/umeiqj6ckzw61.jpg\" alt=\"World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic Release Date Leaked \" class=\"wp-image-166732\" width=\"543\" height=\"477\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There has been some controversy over the remastered classic game, especially when Blizzard announced it would include a Cash Shop. You could also acquire mounts, which was a rare commodity in the original title that represented a player\u2019s status. Some fans welcomed this modern approach, while others were dissatisfied and wanted the publisher to remain true to the classic version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whatever their feelings, we\u2019re all excited to see World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic appear. Since June 1 is right around the corner, we\u2019re hoping to see an official announcement from Blizzard soon. Well, one that actually stays around long enough to enjoy it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blizzard Accidentally Leaked World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic Release Date Gamers who have been watching Blizzard news on the Battle.Net platform had a surreal experience when the publisher hinted at a released date for World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic.
