Acclaimed developer Blizzard Entertainment (World of Warcraft, Diablo, StarCraft) has filed new game-related trademarks for "Cataclysm" on June 26th. We search the keyword of "The Great Sundering" from WoWWiki.com, it's said that it's an explanation of 'The Great Sundering' which is also called 'The Catacylsm'.

The Great Sundering, also known as simply the Sundering or the Cataclysm,WRPG 185, 211 was a world event which reshaped Azeroth approximately 10,000 years ago at the end of the War of the Ancients. This event was triggered due to the Well of Eternity being destroyed. Prior to the Sundering, there was only one continent on Azeroth, referred to as Kalimdor. In the catastrophic explosion, eighty percent of the land mass was destroyed,W3Man #? leaving behind the major continents and scattered islands that are known today: Northrend, Kezan, the Eastern Kingdoms, and the remnant still referred to as Kalimdor. The site of the Well of Eternity became a swirling vortex of power known as the Maelstrom.

It so happens that we know some players find a new test realm which named "Maelstrom 3 Test" when they sign in PTR. This realm is an RPPVP server, but soon it disappeared in the list.



And there was a rumor earlier this year talked about it will be an expansion names "call of storm" will be released at Blizz Con 2009, as former years. We don't know if it is the last expansion of WOW, but finally we will get the fact then. In view of these signs, let's try bold to assume that it must be a third expansion of World of Warcraft! The lost of the Well of Eternity and exploring in the underwater world with nagas - former highborne night elves who mutated into vengeful humanoid sea serpents. They really make people excited! The result of this discussion must be known at Blizz Con 2009, just wait and see!
