After two weeks of eight-hour maintenance, I'm pleased to announce that all World of Warcraft servers will be offline for just an hour this morning.

It’s just around the corner!

Have you eaten your first box of candy and needed to buy the “Shameful Second” box? The “Is What It Is third box?” The “Accepting You Have a Problem and Doing Nothing to Change It” fourth box?

I certainly don’t know what you’re talking about, and I resent your accusatory stares right now.

While I try and find a spot to dispose of a small mountain of wrappers, it’s time for our daily question and answer column — The Queue!

Stop me if you've heard this one before: a bunch of crypts in the lowest level of a vampire's lair, holding silver, lurking undead enemies, a secret our big bad guy doesn't want found, and more.

While there were plenty of happenings last week — with a new Hearthstone expansion and a new phase for The Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary realms — I think all eyes are on World of Warcraft: Forever, which launches next week, and it's a little hard to get excited about anything else.

I’m going on a vacation trip soon and I hope I get isekai’d into some videogame world. Some of those locations you see in games look so realistic that one might think they could actually exist in real life!

This is the Queue, our daily Q&A column where sometimes we wonder what it would be like to visit Azeroth, or Hyrule, or Planet Zebes, and then we decide to play some Assassin’s Creed. (I wish Florence was real.)

Hallow's End has begun in World of Warcraft, and with it comes all our old haunts, plus a ton of content for our Player Housing neighborhoods.

It’s a sad day in video games, as we mourn the loss of BioWare, which is so crushing there are barely words for it.

That doesn’t mean I’m not going to write words about it, but none of those words encompasses the scope of what we’ve lost.

But let’s get down to business. This is the Queue, our daily Q&A column where I do my best to answer your questions and sometimes write lengthly soliloquies to my favorite games.

Every week the Epic Games Store gives away a game or two for free.

We continue to inch closer to the November 4 release date of World of Warcraft: Forever, and I want to be as prepared as possible to jump right into this unique slice of Azeroth and hit the ground running.

The Reign of the Black Empire expansion has just been released for Hearthstone, and as is tradition, the Recipe Tavern Brawl is here on the first week, to let players get a taste of the new cards and mechanics for each class.
