16 years later, World of Warcraft may be arriving on consoles


A rather unusual thing happened in Brazil - there was an indication that World of Warcraft Shadowlands could come to the Xbox Series X.

The Classification Committee for Determining the Age Limits of Video Games in Brazil has made an extremely unusual entry in its database - World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, for PC and Xbox Series X. The part with the PC platform is not controversial, but this is the first time that someone in a very long time mentions the possibility of the emergence of the cult MMORPG on the console.

It is quite possible that this is a "printing" error and that even 16 years later WoW will not be available outside the PC. However, another intriguing fact should be kept in mind. The upcoming Shadowlands expansion will be the first to add controller support to the 16-year-old game.

From Blizzard, they say their desire is to make WoW more accessible to an audience that can’t use the keyboard in gaming due to certain handicaps. However, so far only special controllers have been mentioned, such as Microsoft’s Xbox Adaptive controller. Hence, it’s not exactly an indication that the game is in the making for the Xbox Series X, but - you never know, do you?
