Cataclysm bonus DVD detailed

By Wesley Yin-Poole Published 12 October, 2010

Who is Deathwing?

The bonus DVD included in the Collector's Edition of World of Warcraft expansion Cataclysm features over an hour and a half of video.

Films include Who is Deathwing?, a World of Warcraft retrospective, interviews with programmers and a piece on game design, according to the British Board of Film Classification.

The bonus DVD also includes the Cataclysm intro cinematic and major content patch trailers complete with director's commentary.

Deathwing is one of five Dragon Aspects and leader of the black dragonflight. In other words, he's a pretty big deal. He's also the main bad guy in Cataclysm.

Cataclysm will be released on 7th December. It's the third WOW expansion, and follows The Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King – both hugely successful.

It introduces two new races: the worgen and goblins, and increases the level cap to 85. The Collector's Edition costs £59.99 in the UK.

    You need all of them, but the changes to the old-world are for everyone.

    Genji : to be fair, the name originated as a hero for the WarCraft 2 expansion pack (Beyond the Dark Portal), circa 1996, when Deathwing was merely a dragon hero unit who had goddamn black metal* melded to his wings.

    (*The physical substance, not the music, though arguably that would be more awesome)

    Right to make it a bit clearer to what Dark said, ALL the system changes, the new class combos of the orginal races, the new skill/talent system, the orginal 1-60 content and the guild content comes 'free' with the vanilla box.

    Ofc TBC and Wrath has their own current locks still outland and northreand (ie 60-80 and the races and classes from them) is still in need of those disks, however 80-85 (plus goblin and Worgen, AND the rated Battlegrounds as thats 85 only) needs cata, so in the end YES you need everything to play WoW fully...

    HOWEVER if you what to 'test' Cataclysm out before you put your hand in your pocket, the next patch this week comes with all the system and talent changes, it's worth having a look as most classes have been reworked from the ground up, also rumour has it that between that patch and actal release of Cata on disk may see the 1-60 world remade before hand.

    So you could effectivily just use the 15 day trial/RaF and buy the vanilla box to see the main bulk of the changes (in total giving you 45 days for about a tenner or less) without having to buy the other three copies of the expantions at all, which TBH was Blizzard's 'plan' in the long run anyway
