Azeroth will see an invasion of horrific demons and returning players at the end of August.

Blizzard announced today that the sixth expansion for its multiplayer online role-playing game, World of Warcraft, should hit PC on August 30. Titled Legion, the new content will try to give the aging MMO, which originally came out way back in 2004, a boost in paying subscribers. This is actually earlier than a November leak suggested, which showed a September 21 release date.
