World of Warcraft – Building Azeroth: Northrend

The Classic version of World of Warcraft’s Wrath of the Lich King expansion is supposed to be launching later this year. And with this in mind, we’re treated to a “Building Azeroth” video where three of the expansion’s level designers reminisce about designing the continent of Northrend and all the challenges they had to overcome while working on Wrath of the Lich King.

Here it is:

Grab your parka and gloves and prepare for an adventurous return to the frozen tundra of Northrend. Take a sentimental journey with art director Ely Cannon, Lead Level Designer Sarah Boulian-Verrall, and Overwatch game director Aaron Keller to the time when they all worked together as a part of the level design team on Wrath of the Lich King. You’ll learn more about how the team built Northrend and how this icebound world was brought to life.
