Blizzard also released this description of the new Demon Hunter class..
“Dominate your foes as a Demon Hunter, an elven outcast shunned for daring to wield the terrible powers of the Legion. Exhibiting superior mobility and a preternatural sense of awareness, Demon Hunters can tap into forbidden powers at times of dire need, metamorphosing into terrifying fel forms. Focus on Havoc to demolish any who stand in your way with fiery demonic attacks, or specialize in Vengeance and go toe to toe with even the most powerful demons, withstanding massive punishment as their attacks fuel your hatred.”
Also announced is a new continent named Black Isles which will include 6 different regions. Those regions are The Broken Shore, Azsuna, Suramar, Stormheim, Val’Sharah, and Highmountain.
Blizzard will be hosting a developer discussion on Sunday, August 9.
