The development team at Blizzard continues to deliver big updates to the patch 6.0.1, which will be accompanying the launch of the Warlords of Draenor expansion for World of Warcraft, based on the feedback that it has been getting from a small number of initial testers.

The official announcement allows fans of the MMO to quickly see which elements of the extensive changes have been modified since the list was first published, and the company says that more tweaks will be implemented.

Blizzard adds, “Please be aware that the Beta patch notes are preliminary and not final. Details may change before retail release and new information will be added for additional features as development continues on the Warlords of Draenor expansion. Note: Not all the content listed may be available for immediate testing or may only be available during a limited testing window during the Beta.”

The official launch date for the beta period of Warlords of Draenor will be announced in a coming special event and at the same time the company will reveal when the expansion will be offered to fans.

Blizzard has recently announced that World of Warcraft has dropped to 6.8 million monthly subscribers, but the number will probably increase before the end of the year.
