We showed you what Northrend has to offer in pictoral form last night, but here’s a rundown of the various zones you’ll see up in the frozen north when you take that boat or zeppelin. Northrend definitely seems like some of the best work Blizzard has ever done — there’s a zone-wide city of Trolls, we’re getting visits from new NPCs like the Oracles (talking Murlocs!) and the Tuskarr and Taunka, and old visits from groups like The Venture Company, the Titans, and old Hemet Nesingwary himself. And the richness of available landscapes here is amazing as well, from the chilly flats of the Borean Tundra to the sheltered heat of the rainforests of Sho’lazar to the windswept, battered Storm Peaks and the icy evil of Icecrown.

Northrend is going to be amazing — here’s one final preview before we take that step into the land of the Lich King.
