Blizzard is celebrating the tenth anniversary of World of Warcraft this month and to mark the occasion, the company is releasing a new movie that charts the formation and continued success of WoW.
Eye Of Azshara Trademarked...So, Is It The Next Expansion For WoW Or Hearthstone?
We'd call it over-blown and self-indulgent, but a) this is Blizzard and b) what other game from 2004 are you still playing? The company is well within their rights to pat themselves on the shoulder.
The movie is titled World of Warcraft: Looking For Group. Attendees to Blizzcon this weekend will get a chance to view the film this Saturday at 5 PM PST. Don't worry if you can't make it to Anaheim, the documentary will be streaming on the official Warcraft site.

"This decade-spanning archive explores the history of WoW with the people who create it, collects stories from players around the world, and takes you into corners of Blizzard and the WoW community you've never seen before." Even Superman is in it! Brandon Routh, that is.
The documentary is produced by Asylum Entertainment, who have quite the prolific resume when it comes to film and television. They did the fantastic King's Ransom for ESPN's 30 For 30 series.
Whether you're a casual social gamer, a hardcore console gamer or you have relatives that play games, you've heard of World of Warcraft. You have a cousin who plays it, or a co-worker or friend or loved one, or perhaps you're like me and you played for many a year in the past. I've often sat in front of the screen, mowing through adversaries and raid content and wondering, 'how in god's name does this all come together?'
We'll find out when World Of Warcraft: Looking For Group premieres this Saturday. Watch the trailer below and start /dancing for joy. There's going to be a lot to celebrate in a few days.
