One College Football Team Is Getting A World Of Warcraft Makeover
Move over, College Football 25: it's World of Warcraft's turn to partner with college athletes in a crossover we never saw coming. Blizzard has announced a new partnership with the University of Washington in which the college will become the University of Warcraft for a week in the lead up to the Washington Huskies' home finale against UCLA.
UW Football is collaborating with WoW to promise a "one-of-a-kind in-stadium experience" on Friday, with World of Warcraft mascots leading the team onto the field, a fan zone offering character meet-and-greets, and unique visuals for the stadium video board. Blizzard has also revealed a unique logo for its University of Warcraft collaboration, and has promised more unique WoW-themed graphics leading up to the game.
From your starting zone to the end zone 🏈 @UW_Football is partnering with @Warcraft for a one-of-a-kind in stadium experience.
