Blizzard has filed a new Trademark for the name Cataclysm and speculation mounts as to what it could be related to.Most fans expect it to be the name of the next World of Warcraft expansion which could be announced at Blizzcon this August. World of Warcraft fans think the name could refer to ‘The Sundering’ event according to WoW Incgamers.”The Sundering, an event that happened ten thousand years in the past of Azeroth. A permanent scar of such cataclysm is known as the Maelstrom. Event that happened when the Well of Eternity imploded when Queen Azshara and her Highborne failed to open a portal to allow the entry of Sargeras and the Burning Legion into Azeroth. If Cataclysm is the next expansion that might mean the South Seas theme is underway”We know that Blizzard is working on two further unannounced projects, one of them being a game based on a new IP so could it be ready to announce a new title this year or is this simply a WoW expansion?Speculation will undoubtedly persist but we suspect we’ll hear more about this at Blizzcon.
