WoW Cataclysm Finally Comes to Wow Classic. Blizzard Revealed Release Date and Full Roadmap
The Cataclysm expansion pack will hit World of Warcraft Classic next month. The refreshed version of the DLC, which at one time made a lot of „stink” to WoW, will introduce various novelties to the MMORPG.
Last year, the developers of the World of Warcraft series, Blizzard Entertainment, announced that Cataclysm expansion will be added to WoW Classic, a refreshed version of the DLC that strongly divides the franchise's fans. After several months of waiting, we learned the official release date of the new-old content.
According to the information provided by Blizzard, Cataclysm will be released in the MMORPG on May 20. A little earlier, on April 30, players will be able to download the pre-release update.
This, however, is not everything. Every few months, the developers will add further expansion content updates to World of Warcraft Classic. Devs have made available on X a schedule of publication for individual updates.

A few words about the original WoW: Cataclysm
It's worth devoting a few sentences to the original Cataclysm at the end. Many players praised the third expansion in the history of WoW, but for a significant group of brand fans, it marked the beginning of its "decline." According to them, the expansion fell short in many ways, including inappropriate content and unnecessary features. However, the memory of these events didn't prevent Blizzard from announcing a DLC for Classic and preparing for its imminent premiere.
