Unless a zone in World of Warcraft is part of the current story, it is rare to see any updates in terms of what is happening there. Many parts of Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms are still stuck in the early aftermath of the Cataclysm, even though it has been years since then, both in the game and in real life.
While it isn’t part of the main story, Blizzard has added a campaign that allows players to see what is going on in another part of Azeroth, the Arathi Highlands. There is growing tension between the Humans and Orcs that live in that region, and in Rise of the Red Dawn, you will investigate the source of the unrest and uncover a new threat.
Before starting Rise of the Red Dawn, you may want to consider listening to the audio novella known as “Heartlands”. This novella takes place between the events of The War Within leveling campaign and Rise of the Red Dawn.
Spoilers below, proceed with caution.
