Blizzard's iconic MMORPG game, World of Warcraft, is still considering a console version of the game, best known for its early beginnings twenty years ago as a PC game.

There have been significant changes to WoW over the years, with many gamers criticizing it from being an MMORPG and now as an MMO title, also seeing a tabletop board game version of it. 

After all the developments and platforms, alongside DLCs and new board game content, it is yet to see a console version of the iconic game. 

World of Warcraft Console Version Still Under Consideration

World of Warcraft vice president and executive producer Holly Longdale recently confirmed via an interview with GamesRadar that a console version of the game is still under consideration.

When asked about bringing the famed title to consoles, Longdale enthusiastically said, "Of course! Yeah, we talk about it all the time." 

This console availability for WoW has been a long-time topic of discussion in the game's communities, with many arguing that it is still coming and others filled with doubts about it. 

 For many years, there have been various speculations regarding World of Warcraft's console version, with one talking about its first availability being on the Xbox.

However, to date, there have still been no official announcements behind its development, albeit a confirmed possibility of this.

Blizzard's World of Warcraft Franchise

For almost twenty years since its November 2024 release, Blizzard's World of Warcraft is one of the best-known MMORPG titles available in the industry, stemming from a massive franchise and spinoff games. The company has also released iconic and classic sets, including the return of the Wraith of the Lich King in 2023, bringing back the Call of Crusade raid. 

It is also known that the first Defense of the Ancients (DOTA) was based on Warcraft III's The Reign of Chaos and its expansion, The Frozen Throne, centering on a mod that turned it into a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA). 

Through the years, massive expansions and new versions of WoW brought gamers a continued MMO experience, with Blizzard remaining strong with the franchise. 

There was various news regarding World of Warcraft's upcoming console availability, but until today, there have still been no confirmations or official news about the game's new platform version.

Now, World of Warcraft's vice president and executive producer confirms the console version of the game, porting the experience best known in the PCs to gaming devices.
