World of Warcraft's hiding something

by Alan Rose { Oct 4th 2005 at 6:30PM }

1UP.com reports that World of Warcraft users have discovered hidden and mostly unfinished maps that are either works in progress or abandoned concepts. While Blizzard has prevented further prying eyes from accessing this content when playing the game on the company's servers, the maps and models themselves are still viewable in the game's client. Some of these areas are even said to contain their fair share of booty (no, not that kind). Have any of our intrepid readers accessed this forbidden fruit?

From reading the 1UP article, would it be fair to speculate that the expansion :might: involve time-travel?

On another note, for all you WoW players out there, if you check the map of Felwood for example, you can see an area to the east of it called Hyjal, but there's no way to access it on the map.

Maybe it's for an upcoming patch or the expansion perhaps?
