There's trouble in the online gaming world when the actions of a
renegade player threaten to destroy Blizzard Entertainment's
award-winning game World of Warcraft.
The future of the game lies in
the hands of Cartman, Kyle, Stan and Kenny when all new episodes in the
tenth season of the widely-acclaimed series, "South Park," premiere
Wednesday, October 4 at 10:00 p.m. on COMEDY CENTRAL.
In this
episode, the boys come into contact with a gamer who doesn't play by
the rules. Even the creative people behind World of Warcraft don't know
how to stop the renegade. They are forced to put all of their hope into
the hands of the kids of South Park. The boys dedicate their lives to
defeating the mad gamer and saving the game for all.
"We were
excited to hear that the creators of “South Park' were interested in
featuring World of Warcraft in the opening of their new season, and we
really enjoyed collaborating with them to make this happen," said Mike
Morhaime, president and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We're
looking forward to sharing the experience with our employees and our
players as well when the season debuts this week."
World of
Warcraft is the world's most popular massively multiplayer online
role-playing game, with millions of players worldwide. In World of
Warcraft, players assume the roles of legendary heroes as they develop
friendships, forge alliances, and compete with enemies for power and
glory. The game's upcoming expansion pack, World of Warcraft: The
Burning Crusade, is due out by the end of this year. Learn more about
