Hints WoW on Xbox announced at Gamescon

How is that a hint??

Seriously.

Looked at the entire article and not once,emphasis on once did the article say World of Warcraft.

Even the packaging outside of the pic you showed, they show 4 packages of gummie candy and guess what no WoW on them.

Looks more like an advert for Trolli candy than a WoW add .

Xal is going to be on anything and everything for awhile now that Xal is possibly the big bad.

Sorry but I see no evidence from that article about any hint of WoW coming to Game Pass.

Read again and still looks liike a marketing ploy.

i mean i already play wow on steam deck daily

whoa. That’s wild stuff. Man, how far gaming has come. I can’t wait to see what the next 10-15 years brings us.

Maybe we’ll be playing WoW in VR or 3D some day.

Streaming game services are a DoA product. You can do it, but it’s such a bad experience that nobody will do it unless they absolutely have to. It is also extremely bad as a concept for consumers, insofar as it is a further incursion into the “buying isn’t owning” front of videogames.

Nothing is exciting about streaming game services; they are another way for rich companies to hold poor gamers to a fire; you get a manageable short-term cost that ends up costing you significantly more over the lifetime of what would have been the product you originally purchased (ie: the computer), if you werent too poor to afford it. It’s like the renting vs. buying of videogames.

Not happening.

(Not sure on Series S) but anyone with a Series X should be able to run WoW on max settings no worries (if people are using older systems and would love an upgrade).

Ability to run the game itself was never the problem. A potato can run WoW.

I can’t begin to imagine the navigation nitemare of going through everything with a controller and playing wow at a game console FPS.

WoW is not coming to console.

i mean it’s already available on steam deck which is a handheld :sweat_smile::sweat_smile:

I would say it might be playable by someone new to the game, doing something limited, sure, but for anyone that played in PC, that isn’t something that will ever work at all unless u get a keyboard and a mouse attached to it… making it effectively another PC.

I even considered getting one of those foot pedals people use for racing to get extra easy access keybinds lol
I likely will someday, for CCs it would be perfection.

Yes, because Steam is on a PC.

while other consoles have different parts ? you do know that consoles use the same technology as PCs right ?

Well, if it’s a delfaux thread, I know it’s reliable

Even if the game’s coming to Game Pass (it’s not), that doesn’t mean it’s coming to Xbox.

XBox WoW wouldn’t have access to addons

And while the game has controller support, that doesn’t remotely mean it’s designed with controllers in mind. It’s more like “yeah you can use a controller, you figure it out”

This is a M&KB game that doesn’t translate well to consoles or even controllers.

Honestly I can’t imagine anyone who would be crazy enough to want to play wow on a console… At this point a PC that can run it isn’t that much more then current gen consoles and PCs can do more and are far easier to play on. Far more practical too. Wow on console imo is absurd.

It would be a gimmick and you’d put yourself at a disadvantage.

while people love to be doomsayers , all this means nothing . the game is played and available on handheld mode . similarly Elders scrolls online is played on consoles, they don’t have access to addons but I don’t see them having issues. all in all , it’s 2024 , technology is there and all this can be fixed easily .

They should advertise exercise equipment to gamers. Talk about an untapped market lol.

It was for me. I had a laptop that couldn’t run Boralus and just chugged. At the time, the Series X was the most powerful tech I had in the home. I have a better PC now, but back then I would’ve switched to console just to play it if I could.
