In a recent announcement, Blizzard confirmed the imminent addition of trios to World of Warcraft‘s Plunderstorm battle royale game mode. The introduction of this battle royale mode via Patch 10.2.6 seems to have garnered an overall positive response from the community, prompting World of Warcraft‘s developers to take this progressive step forward.
World of Warcraft recently added a new game mode called Plunderstorm that allows 60 players to fight against each other in the Arathi Highlands, with the goal of being the last player or team standing. Shortly after Plunderstorm was introduced, Blizzard made some changes to make it easier for players to earn rewards like Plunder, for example, by offering 50% more Plunder from defeating NPC enemies on the Plunderstorm map, doubling the amount found in golden chests, and providing five times more Plunder for being the last player or team standing at the end of a match.

Trios Are Coming to Plunderstorm
Now, to make Plunderstorm even more interesting, World of Warcraft has announced that trios will be coming to Plunderstorm. This announcement was made on Twitter, with the developer expressing gratitude towards the community for its feedback, which contributed to the developer improving Plunderstorm. Recognizing that some players may find the solo and duo modes limiting, the developer announced that trios will be available in Plunderstorm starting next Tuesday after the weekly reset. The developer expressed excitement about this addition and encouraged players to enjoy the new gameplay experience.
The announcement was met with mostly positive reactions from the player base. Some people expressed excitement, while others asked for the mode to become permanent with new rewards. One player even suggested adding a full squad mode, which would be chaotic. Overall, Plunderstorm seems to be doing well, and Blizzard has already hinted at bringing more experimental game modes and content to World of Warcraft in the future.
The positive player feedback of the Plunderstorm event is a result of the effort put in by Blizzard, which even held a Plunderstorm Creator Royale to hype the game mode. The tournament featured 60 different World of Warcraft content creators divided into 30 teams, all vying to be the last team standing. With a total prize pool of $50,000, the event further solidified the community’s enthusiasm for the new battle royale mode. Additionally, World of Warcraft also announced a Twitch drop campaign to celebrate the release of the Plunderstorm game mode.
