WoW Expansion To Launch In China Next Month?

World of Warcraft players in China may finally get to play Wrath of the Lich King soon, around one year after players in the west got their hands on the expansion.

An unnamed source from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in China told uuu9.com that Wrath of the Lich King may be available as soon as the middle of November.

Poor sods. But I wouldn't be surprised to see them clear all the content in the first week once they get the expansion. I bet they've been researching all the tactics.

"The amount of work involved in making the game suitable for China was highlighted recently, when GAPP insisted that all images and graphics showing bones or decapitated heads had to be removed or replaced."

Lol, good old GAPP.

Yeah, replaced with images of BAGS or BOXES. It's hilarious. Half the icons in certain talent trees are containers!

Well, better late than never. Even if this delay does strike me as utterly mental.

China is almost as bad as Australia... that isn't saying how good China is but how bad Australia is for gamers.
