What we know so far

Automatic note by LuaCat Games, built from what we know about the coverage (who reported it, how many sites, the story’s history) — not a translation or copy of the source.

This comes from IGN, which does its own reporting — for now, it's the only coverage. When it's World of Warcraft, the story leaves the bubble on its own. In the 30 days before this one, 40 other World of Warcraft stories ran here. Now we find out whether the delivery matches the hype.

Bottom line: Safe to take the main point — it's the fine detail that sometimes shifts later.
