[Global Network Technology Comprehensive Report] On August 1, Blizzard's classic game "World of Warcraft" officially opened its Chinese server today. According to Blizzard's original plan, the server opening time was scheduled for 12:00 noon today, but according to player feedback, the server opening time was advanced, and players can now enter the game smoothly.


It is worth noting that when players log in to World of Warcraft for the first time, the system will undergo a conversion process for the new warband system, which may take up to 20 minutes or more. At the same time, depending on the amount of data the system needs to process, players may queue up when logging in.

The opening of the official server brings the pre-content of the "War for the Core" version, and related products are also launched simultaneously on the Battle.net store and the in-game store, including point card packages and character upgrade packages.

To celebrate the return of the Chinese server, starting from August 1, players can receive a variety of in-game items for free in the Battle.net store and the in-game store, including the mounts "Ashi'ada Dawnbringer" and "Greeting Bear", as well as the pets "Glory" and "Little Red Dragon".

Looking back at history, on January 23, 2023, many Blizzard games such as World of Warcraft, Overwatch, and Hearthstone were suspended and servers were shut down in mainland China. Now, after 556 days, World of Warcraft is the first to return to the Chinese server, and this news has excited many players. One player said: "After a long wait, we finally waited for this day. Let us protect our homeland again for Azeroth."
