World of Warcraft Cosmetic Bundle May Hint at Next Expansion
The Seafarer Pack cosmetic bundle in World of Warcraft could potentially be a hint about the game’s next expansion. This collection of items, available for purchase in the cash shop, shares a common theme that has historically alluded to future game developments.
The bundle includes the following items:
- Dreadwake pirate ship mount
- Tottle, a mini Tortollan pet
- Cap’n Crackers, a pirate parrot pet
- Dottie, an alpaca pet
The Dreadwake mount is the most obvious hint, as it is a pirate ship. Pirates are often associated with the sea, so this could be a clue that the next expansion will be set in a watery environment.
The other items in the bundle also have ties to the sea. Tottle is a Tortollan, a race of turtles that are known for their love of the water. Cap’n Crackers is a parrot, which are also associated with the sea. And Dottie is an alpaca, which are often used by the wayfaring Vulpera, a desert tribe that has been known to sail the seas.
In addition to the Seafarer Pack, there are other clues that suggest the next expansion could be seafaring-themed. For example, the latest raid in the Shadowlands expansion, Sepulcher of the First Ones, features a boss called Skoldus, the Jailer’s First Lieutenant. Skoldus is a giant crab, and his defeat could open the way to a new expansion set in the ocean.
Finally, there are some fan theories that suggest the next expansion could involve the return of the Naga, a race of serpentine creatures that live in the sea. The Naga have been featured in previous World of Warcraft expansions, and they are known for their seafaring prowess.
Of course, it is also possible that the Seafarer Pack is simply a cosmetic bundle that does not have any bearing on the next expansion. However, given the historical precedent and the other clues that are out there, it seems likely that the Seafarer Pack is a hint at what is to come.
We will have to wait and see what Blizzard reveals in the coming months, but the Seafarer Pack is definitely something to keep an eye on.
