Key Takeaways

  • World of Warcraft’s 30th Anniversary Bundle includes four mounts inspired by Warcraft 3 factions for $30.
  • The Warcraft franchise celebrates its 30th anniversary with various events, including new mounts for WoW players.

As a long-time devotee of the Warcraft universe, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgic excitement when I see the 30th Anniversary Bundle for World of Warcraft. The mounts inspired by the four factions of Warcraft 3 are not just a delightful nod to the past, but also a testament to how deeply intertwined these games have become in my life’s tapestry.


In an exciting announcement, the World of Warcraft has unveiled a special bundle in honor of its 30-year journey, filled with mounts themed around the four factions from Warcraft 3. This bundle, aptly priced at $30, is named the Warcraft 30th Anniversary Bundle and contains four mounts, each available for both Classic and current versions of World of Warcraft.

The 30th anniversary of the “Warcraft” franchise falls on November 15, with the 20th anniversary of “World of Warcraft” specifically occurring on November 23. Blizzard Entertainment is commemorating these significant milestones through various means, such as a grand event within “World of Warcraft,” and the inaugural “Warcraft” Direct presentation scheduled for November 13.

Hey there fellow gamer! Guess what? I just learned that World of Warcraft has rolled out a new way for us to celebrate their anniversaries. It’s called the Warcraft 30th Anniversary Mount Bundle, and it’s available on Battle.net store. This pack includes four unique flying mounts – Gryphon, Hippogryph, Dreadwing, and Wind Rider, each coming in two variants: Chaos-Forged for the modern World of Warcraft and Chaos-Born for the Classic version. The best part? You can only get them as a bundle for $30! So, if you’re looking to upgrade your mount collection, this is the perfect opportunity. Let’s ride into the game in style!

These new World of Warcraft mounts are direct references to the four playable factions of Warcraft 3: the Human Alliance, the Orcish Horde, the Undead Scourge, and the Night Elf Sentinels. That said, the mounts in this bundle are not locked to any World of Warcraft race or faction – an Orc can ride the Gryphon as easily as the Wind Rider, and an Undead can ride the Hippogryph or the Dreadwing.

These new mounts could be another piece in the larger puzzle of the popular game “Warcraft 3”. In November, the prize for finishing the Adventurer’s Log at the Trading Post is a collection of back transmogs themed around “Warcraft 3”, and recent artwork from the “Warcraft” Direct announcement shows significant characters from “World of Warcraft” such as Thrall, Tyrande, and Jaina wearing their “WC3” designs. Additionally, the brief update of “Warcraft 3: Reforged” to version 2.0 on the internal Public Test Realm has fueled speculation among players that something significant is coming up for the RTS game. If this is true, Blizzard may reveal something new at the upcoming “Warcraft” Direct event.

It’s worth noting that besides the new mounts added to the World of Warcraft store, another one has also been updated recently – the Trader’s Gilded Brutosaur. This well-known gold sink mount now features a mobile Auction House NPC replaced by a mailbox instead of a repair vendor. However, this single mount comes at a hefty price tag of $90, which is three times the cost of the entire Warcraft 30th Anniversary Mount Bundle.
