The new Zul'jan quest line just went live, so we're looking forward to World of Warcraft patch 12.1, which includes a new Player Housing exterior.

What’s going on with all the raccoon talk in the last Queue? I asked Cory, and he told me “It’s a total mystery and nothing I did for sure.” So I have to take him at his word for it and assume it’s everyone else who is being weird. Why would a raccoon wear an eye patch, anyway? So I’m watching all of you is what I’m saying.

This the Queue, our daily Q&A column which I am currently using as an excuse to post this picture of Moo Deng, which is going to make all of our days better. Let’s get to it.

Turbulent Timeways has returned during World of Warcraft's patch 12.0.7, and is live through August 11.

Hearthstone is at it again with their egregiously expensive Darkmoon Faire gacha-style roulette game, which introduced pets a while ago and still has terrible, terrible odds — to get the top prize, you'll probably have to pay up to $168.

Hearthstone has a new expansion, Escape from Violet Hold, and this time VanVan — that's Vanessa VanCleef for you uninitiated — is commanding a daring prison break from the Violet Hold, now guarded by none other than Maiev Shadowsong.
