Alot of that image looks like it couldn’t have been faked. You can explain the jpeg artifacts as the image being edited onto a template piece.
It seems like someone working on Blizzcon stuff took a photo and wanted to troll.
The Bolvar image is the only legit looking thing.

It’d be a lot easier if we had all of the formatting options shown in the reply box.

Ok, well according to FotoForensics it’s a fake:
This is literally just telling me they photoshopped the advertisement for the shirt on top of an image.
Why does that confirm it’s fake?

The part you may be missing is the actual analysis text at the bottom:
The subject is still of the website, not the image itself, which is clearly just a screencap if real.
I agree what would have actually been helpful would have been the leak faker…errrr…person suggesting this really is a thing…to have posted an actual url to the actual page this was supposedly seen on. No one’s done that at all, so since all we have is an unsubstantiated supposed screen grab from an undisclosed website that’s all there is to go on.

They’re selling “4XL” sizes, so I’m thinking that it is very possibly legit!

Nah. It’s a fake leak cause there’s no Mt Dew or Dorritos sponsorship.

My main thing is that there’s never been that much cinematic detail on Bolvar, ever.
Ever.
That combined with the hammer, and the fact it looks exactly like and nothing else, a blizzard cinematic.
I just think that there’s a lot of artwork one would need to perform in order to even make this even possible to photoshop or fake.
Also, someone faking this WOULD NOT HAVE MISSED THE EYE DETAIL, especially putting so much effort into it.
This means… It’s not just him in the helmet.

Honestly I just appreciate how much effort was put into this… whoever it was that did.
Looks so good you can legitimately put it as a background.

And I find it unlikely that the artist would go unnamed, or the picture unclaimed for this amount of work.
more fuel for the fire

Bastion?
But anyways, this is great, because it dismisses one of my worst fears that the expansion would be nothing but void stuff.
What is Bastion?
Is that a place in lore?
Maybe if there’s a shadowlands, that there’s an opposite? That place looks quite light-infused.
Or maybe even more interesting, a positive aspect of the Void. I doubt that part, though.
edit: Now that I think about it, maybe it’s a place uncorrupted in the shadowlands, hence the name.
edit2: About the “Noble” Kyrian, it seems it’s inspired off a real life name, with the meanings “most innocent” or “god have mercy”
So…like the past leaks that have been confirmed, I’m not seeing any actual confirmation beyond it looks neat.
