'World of Warcraft' gameplay news: Players awarded with in-game Corgi pup for the game's 12th anniversary

"World of Warcraft" is celebrating its 12th anniversary, and Blizzard, in a magnanimous expression of gratitude, is offering a special gift package for its loyal players. Players are in for a treat since the company it has never done before: giving out adorable gifts in the form of a cute Ccorgi puppy. 

Game N Guide, however, reports that the gift is not a real Corgi puppy, since it will be just an in-game pup instead. Blizzard announced on its own website that the players who log into the game between Thursday, Nov. 24 and Wednesday, Nov. 30 will get exclusive gift packages which include 200 Timewarped badges. Even without the tangible gifts, gamers are touched to see that Blizzard is thankful and doing its best to recognize the loyalty of its fanbase.

Players who log in are also entitled to items that can increase their XP and reputation gains.

Furthermore, the reward programs implemented in the game will allow players to go to Ogrimmar or Stormwind in order to access more gifts. However, this really depends on the players' Horde and Alliance status, as well as their levels.

Also, there is a "World of Warcraft" trivia that gives players more Timewarped badges when they answer questions correctly. The Tech Times reports that the package will include the "Letter from the Timewalkers," which, upon reading, will lead to the quest mentioned above. The players will have to go to the Historian Llore and Historian Ju'pe in order for them to get the "Warcraft Trivia" daily quests.

Players can also purchase event items related to the 12th anniversary from the questgivers along with the Corgi pup.

In other news, "World of Warcraft: Legion" is expected to receive a significant update soon, "The Tomb of Sargeras." This is definitely exciting news for players since it will give them access to a new Raid with nine bosses as well as more features that haven't been revealed just yet.
