World of Warcraft's Festive Feast: A Lore-Filled Celebration

World of Warcraft's annual Feast of Winter Veil, a virtual Christmas celebration, returns with fresh rewards and activities. This year's festivities are enhanced by a collaborative lore video with PlatinumWoW, delving into the rich history of this beloved in-game event.

The video explores the holiday's diverse origins, weaving together Dwarven myths about Greatfather Winter (a Titan-forged giant), Tauren traditions of gratitude and renewal, and the modern-day commercialization by the entrepreneurial goblins of Smokeywood Pastures.

A recurring highlight, the infamous Metzen the Reindeer (named after Chris Metzen), features prominently, recounting his various kidnappings by pirates, Dark Iron dwarves, and even the Grinch. The video concludes with a humorous nod to Metzen's voice actor, Chris Metzen himself, through a thank you message delivered in Thrall's voice.

This collaboration marks another successful partnership between Blizzard and PlatinumWoW, following previous lore videos on topics ranging from Nerubians and Vrykul to World Trees and Blackrock Depths. Blizzard's ongoing collaborations with content creators, including Taliesin & Evitel and Hurricane, enrich the World of Warcraft experience.

Players can still participate in the Feast of Winter Veil until January 5th, 2024. This year's highlights include a tamable Dreaming Festive Reindeer for Hunters, new holiday transmogs, the Grunch pet, and a surprise gift waiting under the virtual tree in Orgrimmar or Stormwind. Don't miss out on the festive fun!
