In 2025,Warcraft Rumblehas received a few events and new minis, but nothing groundbreaking yet.
However,Warcraft Rumblerecently surprised fans with a rather unexpected announcement. The Lich King, theiconic lord of the Scourge inWorld of Warcraft, is coming to the game soon as a new Leader. Little information is known about the character at present, though players can catch a glimpse of the Lich King inWarcraft Rumble’s latest trailer and can expect to hear more about him in the weeks leading up to his release in March.
The Lich King is Coming to Warcraft Rumble
The Lich King will definitely be a Leader for the Undead family, though it is possible he could be a Split Leader for the Alliance, given his former life as Prince Arthas of Lordaeron. The armored master of the Scourge is known for wielding Frostmourne, a cursed Runeblade, so he will likely be a tanky melee Leader. Thereveal blogalso mentioned Remorseless Winter and Frost Fever – two iconicFrost Death Knight abilities inWorld of Warcraft– so his kit may include these as well.
It remains to be seen if the Lich King will be obtained via an in-game event, as a seasonal reward, or through some other means. Many fans are hoping he could even be unlocked by completing a potential new Icecrown Citadel raid – similar to theRagnaros Leader from beating Molten Core inWarcraft Rumble– where he would undoubtedly serve as the final boss.
While players are understandably excited to see the Lich King arrive inWarcraft Rumble, there are a lot of questions about why Blizzard chose now to do it.Wrath of the Lich Kingwas the thirdWorld of Warcraftexpansion to be released, and there is plenty of content fromClassicandThe Burning Crusadethat hasn’t been added yet. That said, noteveryWarcraft RumbleLeaderis from vanillaWoW;Maiev did not show up untilThe Burning Crusade, Anub’Arak untilWrath of the Lich King, and Orgrim Doomhammer and Grommash Hellscream died inWarcraft 2and3, respectively. Either way, with no roadmap for the future of the game,Warcraft Rumblefans will have to wait and see if any other content will be added alongside the Lich King.
