Die Entwickler von Blizzard haben im Verlauf der vergangenen Tage einen neuen Blogeintrag zu World of Warcraft veröffentlicht, der wieder einmal alle wichtigen Ereignisse aus dem kommenden Monat Juli auflistet. Wer also der keine mit Patch 6.2 implementierten neuen Events im Spiel verpassen möchte oder einfach erfahren will, was es in den kommenden Wochen alles an PvP Turnieren geben wird, der sollte sich diese Übersicht kurz ansehen.

This Month in WoW – July 2015

July is upon us, with its fireworks and its fires and its fiery ways. Patch 6.2 is here, and that means that there’s a lot to see and do in both Azeroth and Draenor. If your cup runneth over, perhaps you should put out some of the fires!

In-Game Events

Midsummer Fire Festival [June 21 – July 5]

There’s a fire in the sky and a dance around the ribbon pole. Flames will be ignited and tossed and caught and blessed. All of the fires will attract the Frost Lord, Ahune, who can only be battled during this event each year. Don’t forget that his Satchel of Chilled Goods is the only way to get a Frigid Frostling.

Fireworks over Azeroth [July 4]

Every hour, on the hour, look for fireworks in the skies over major cities in Azeroth. Additionally, you’ll find fireworks aficionados offering mugs and kegs of tasty brews. Dance with them for a special buff.

Want to participate in the rocket launching? Look for holiday fireworks vendors in Booty Bay, Stormwind, Orgrimmar, Ratchet, and Ironforge.

Darkmoon Faire Returns [July 5 – 12]

The mysterious and fun Darkmoon Faire returns to Azeroth on July 5, and if you haven’t completed all of Silas Darkmoon’s new Darkmoon Races, now’s the time! Test your speed and agility on a variety of racing mounts as you dodge electrifying obstacles and zip all over Darkmoon Island for rewards and achievements.

The faire continues to be one of the best ways to acquire heirloom gear, and don’t forget all of the toys, mounts, and pets that can only be gotten here. Furthermore, there’s a big wolf out in those woods. Get some friends and check that out!
