Picture proof: 'Wrath of the Lich King' is new WoW expansion

WOLK
[Update: WoW Insider's crack team of bloggers has further picture proof, a snap of a Wrath of the Lich King shirt on the back of a Blizzard employee ... that certainly sounds definitive to us (take that IGN!). We'll be liveblogging the Opening Ceremony, scheduled to start at 2pm EDT, so check back.]

World of Raids has snagged a convincing slice of evidence that details the assumed World of Warcraft expansion: Wrath of the Lich King. The pamphlet, allegedly on display at BlizzCon, includes this tell-all features list:
  • The dark, necromatic Death Knight, the first new character class added to World of Warcraft since its launch
  • Northrend, the harsh, icy continent where the Lich King holds rule, complete with new zones, quests, items and monsters
  • New level cap of 80 providing access to mighty new powers and talents
  • New battlegrounds featuring siege engine warfare and destructible buildings
  • Expanding character customization options including new hairstyles & dances, the ability to change the hairstyles of existing characters, and new skin color variants
Watch this space for further developments at BlizzCon.
