Welcome to the Shadowlands pre-expansion patch! There are no new mounts at this stage - all those will be coming with the full expansion and their looks (and some sources) can be seen on our Shadowlands page.

It's important to note that the Uncorrupted Voidwing can still be earned by defeating N'Zoth in the Ny'alotha raid on Heroic difficulty or above. But it'll no longer be available once the full expansion hits, so good luck!

The only other significant change to mounts at this stage is that all dreamrunner / courser models (sickle-horned steeds) can now fly.

Hallow's End has begun, giving us one more thing to do while we wait for the Shadowlands full expansion. If you haven't already earned it, the Headless Horseman's Mount is a rare reward from defeating the Headless Horseman in a special version of the Scarlet Monastery. You can access this version at any time during the event, through your group finder, but you have one chance of receiving this mount per character per day. Good luck!

We've had to make some major changes in the way mounts are updated from the Armory. The good news is that it should now be simpler than ever! Just head to your collection page and click the update button. If it's your first update of the day and you're not already logged in to Battle.net then you'll be redirected to Blizzard to sign in.
These changes are still brand new and may need some adjusting. If you experience any issues, please contact us. Note: if you experience a redirect to an 'Internal Server Error' page after logging in to Battle.net, try logging in to Battle.net separately, before you update your collection. This seems to be happening now and then; we believe it's a bug on Blizzard's end and we've reported it.

The Steamscale Incinerator, a formidable mechanical drake of gnomish invention, is now available in the Blizzard Shop (US/EU). It was also part of a 6-month subscription bundle in July, but that has now ended.

Blizzard have announced that their next WoW expansion - Shadowlands - is now available for pre-purchase. The expansion won't be released until some time next year, but if you pre-purchase the Heroic or Epic editions online now you'll receive the bonus goodies immediately. Both special editions include the ethereal Ensorcelled Everwyrm mount, which also grants you a quest for a special 'Vestments of the Eternal Traveler' transmog set. The more expensive Epic edition also includes a matching minipet - the Anima Wyrmling, as well as 30 days of game time, an Eternal Traveler’s hearthstone effect, and the Wraithchill weapon effect. To purchase, or for more information, visit your regional Blizzard Shop: US / EU.

Blizzard have now launched their revamped Recruit-a-Friend program, which includes two new explorer-themed mounts: the Explorer's Dunetrekker (a camel) and the Explorer's Jungle Hopper (a two-seater glider plane). In contrast to the original RaF system, specific rewards are linked to the combined number of months for which your recruits have subscribed, with the Explorer's Dunetrekker at 3 months and the Explorer's Jungle Hopper at 9 months. Note that if you recruit one player who subscribes for 3 or 9 months you'll only receive your mounts once those months have been reached, but if you recruit three or nine players who subscribe for 1 month each you'll receive the appropriate mount(s) immediately.
Sadly there's been no mention of the original Recruit-a-Friend mounts, which makes us worry they've been permanently retired. We're still hoping they'll be made available through some other means.

Marking the 15th Anniversary of World of Warcraft, the elegant Alabaster Stormtalon and Alabaster Thunderwing are now for sale as a bundle in the Blizzard Shop (US / EU). See Blizzard's announcement for more information.

Pre-purchase the special Spoils of War Edition of the upcoming remastered title, Warcraft III:Reforged and receive an exclusive mount in World of Warcraft: the Meat Wagon.

Warcraft III:Reforged Spoils of War Edition is currently available for pre-purchase in the Blizzard Shop (US / EU).
