The Burning Crusade Classic anniversary pre-patch is now live and players have until February 5 when the expansion launches to ready themselves for Outland.

The Cooldown Manager is an in-game tool to help players track their ability cooldowns, buffs, and debuffs, replicating functionality that has usually been provided by addons such as WeakAuras and TellMeWhen.

My favorite part of Hearthstone’s latest miniset, Echoes of the Infinite, was when Morchie showed up, calmly said “IT’S MORCHIE TIME!!!” and Morchied all over those guys.

Welcome to The Queue, our daily Q&A column where the Infinite Dragons are infinite, therefore it’s always Morchie time.

We're waiting on a whole lot this week -- servers to come up for the Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary realms pre-patch, and for the Midnight pre-patch next week, and all the sweeping changes that brings.

Tuesday brings the Midnight pre-patch and a number of systems changes, from transmog to UI to class overhauls.

I found this post on Reddit and frankly, it resonated with me.

When life is crazy, when insanity seems to dominate the world, stop and think. Is this the life Godzilla wants for you? Does Godzilla want you to endure unassisted or would he have you call to your allies, much as he does? Find your personal Rodan, your Mothra, even your Kong — sometimes a frenemy who respects you is better than a friend who doesn’t.

Always remember — Godzilla wants what’s best for you. Unless you’re the municipality of Tokyo, I guess. He’s really rough on that. Also, MusedMoose, I’m sorry I didn’t see you had posted this before I wrote the intro, but I’m pleased to see you understand Godzilla’s message.

Before the next game in the series Styx: Blades of Greed comes out in February, the Styx series is making its first appearance on the Epic Games Store -- and to celebrate, the previous two entries in this series are free this week.

World of Warcraft Classic Anniversary realms have officially become The Burning Crusade Classic anniversary realms with the successful rollout of the TBC Classic pre-patch on January 13, 2026 and players have already  begun preparations to traverse the Dark Portal on February 5, 2026 when the expansion launches.

Sometimes you wake up and want to watch the world burn. And sometimes you wake up and your inner kaiju wants to crash through Tokyo. It’s hard to say which force of destruction will manifest at any given time… but for now, I’m trying to think positive thoughts for the poor Warcraft server team, who was up all night trying to cajole WoW Classic into running. I hope you’ve scheduled some nap time into your day.

This is the Queue, our daily Q&A column where we answer your questions (and occasionally go on kaiju-related tangents). Let’s see what the comment section holds for us today, shall we?

Do not confine yourself into linear thinking...
