As we fought our way through the crowds (and admitedly found the press entrance eventually, which was MUCH faster), we made our way to the Opening Ceremonies of Blizzcon '09. To the cheers of 20,000 fans news of Diablo III, StarCraft II and the upcoming WoW Expansion, Cataclysm were all announced and confirmed.

Putting to rest the rumors, this new expansion quite literally will change the face of Azeroth. Old zones will be changed, and new zones will be added alongside a playable goblin race for the Horde, and the Worgen race for the Alliance.
