WoW: The Burning Crusade - Flying Mounts News

Blizzard today delivered information on one of the most sought after demands to feature in the forthcoming WoW expansion, The Burning Crusade.

Flying mounts promise to bring a whole new dimension to the broken and scattered lands of the orcs' former homeland, Draenor, or what is now known as The Outlands. With some parts of The Outlands inaccessible by foot or boat, inhabitants have had to learn and harness some of the indigenous species as flying mounts to transport them across the realm.

Providing players with the unprecedented freedom to explore the most remote and dangerous regions of The Outlands, flying mounts will be available to players that reach Level 70 in the forthcoming expansion. Both Horde and The Alliance have their own unique type of mounts, along with rare species such as the Nether Drake.

Taking to the skies to soar along the crimson clouds of the Hellfire Peninsula, players have full control over the flying mount, with certain areas of The Outland only accessible by air. Representing the most tangible accomplishment of a Level 70 player, flying mounts also serve as a key to the content that awaits players beyond the maxim limit.

Look out for more on WoW: The Burning Crusade soon.
