World of Warcraft’s next patch adds shipyard and new raid

World of Warcraft’s 6.2 patch will be a big one.

The next major content update to the insanely popular massively multiplayer online role-playing game, which has over 10 million subscribers, will enable players to build a shipyard in their garrison (a player-run fortress introduced in last year’s expansion, Warlords of Draenor). You’ll need a ship to unlock a new area, Tanaan Jungle, which houses a new raid, Hellfire Citadel. There, groups of 10 to 30 players can fight 13 bosses, including Archimonde (the main baddie from Warcraft III).
