Others are wondering if that June 1st date is when the prepatch will roll out to WoW Classic servers, while others in that thread have suggested that this was merely a placeholder date – or perhaps the date that Blizzard was originally targeting but has since delayed – that wasn’t changed before this ad was mistakenly sent live in the launcher. Some have pointed out that a June 1st release date doesn’t leave much time for The Burning Crusade‘s prepatch, which was live in vanilla WoW for several weeks before the expansion itself launched. Whether or not that’s the real release date for The Burning Crusade Classic is a matter of debate among WoW Classic players at the moment. That advertisement says that The Burning Crusade Classic will be launching on June 1st, which is just a few weeks away at this point.
Over on the WoW Classic subreddit, users have shared screenshots of an advertisement for The Burning Crusade Classic that briefly appeared in the desktop launcher today.
