Blizzard has announced that the World of Warcraft: Battle For Azeroth expansion will march into stores on August 14. The MMORPG’s seventh major add-on will be available in three different packages, including a Standard Edition ($49.99), a Digital Deluxe Edition ($69.99), and a Collector’s Edition ($99.99).

Players who purchase the Digital Deluxe Edition will receive access to a Seabraid Stallion (Alliance) Mount, a Gilded Ravasaur (Horde) Mount, and Tottle the Baby Tortollan Pet, as well a variety of content for the remainder of Blizzard’s catalog.
