It will take players more time to improve their characters in "WoW Classic," and the maximum level will be capped at 60, whereas in the modern version of "World of Warcraft" characters can reach level 120.
"World of Warcraft" launched in 2004 and sold 1.4 million copies prior to the release of "Burning Crusade" and more that 100 million accounts have been made to play "World of Warcraft" since 2004. Despite its rough patches, the original version of the game became an iconic realm of fantasy for many of those players and their friends.
