World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King Preview

PC Gamer has cranked out a quick preview of Blizzard’s highly anticipated World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King expansion pack.

The hero class, the Death Knight, should be open to all level 80 players, no matter their faction or race. When you reach 80, you’ll be given a long quest chain that opens up your hero character ‘slot’. You’ll then use it to create an entirely new character. He’s meant as another tanking class – able to take punishment and distract bosses while mages and rogues hand out beatings from afar or behind.

But he’s not just a pretty face with a zweihander. He’s able to summon undead minions and pull off power attacks using the runes players etch into their weapons.
