Blizzard is gearing up for the return of The Thunder King. In preparation for the storm ahead, Blizzard announced on Battle.net that they've slashed the prices on all World of Warcraft games by 50% or more. The hope is that players will recruit their friends to come quest in Azeroth. The deal ends February 25 at 11:59 p.m. PST, but until then, the new prices are:

• World of Warcraft Battle Chest (includes Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King - $19.99 $5
• World of Warcraft: Cataclysm - $29.99 $10
• World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria - $39.99 $20

A brand-new player starting out in World of Warcraft for the first time that wishes to purchase the game and all its expansions will have to pay just $35. That's a ton of content for that price. Unfortunately, players that bought Mists of Pandaria yesterday for $40 will have to stare at this offer announced today and hate themselves for not exhibiting patience another day.
