World of Warcraft<\/a><\/em> is renowned for its expansive set of locations, from barren deserts to lush forests, but some of the most interesting zones are densely inhabited, like Suramar or Tiragarde Sound. The first major patch for The War Within<\/a><\/em> expansion adds another such area with Undermine, the goblin capital and a massive urban center that\u2019s not quite like anything else seen on Azeroth.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Blizzard released a video of Undermine detailing what to expect from the goblin capital. The goblins have been underserved by World of Warcraft<\/em>; since their introduction all the way back in 2010\u2019s Cataclysm,<\/em> they\u2019ve mostly served as goofy comic relief for the Horde. The goblin starting zone in Cataclysm<\/em> is similarly advanced, with cars, highways, and even a personal assistant for the player \u2014 but it was destroyed by the emergence of Deathwing.<\/p>\n
