The WoW 20th Anniversary events give players a break from fighting arachnid and the malicious harbinger of the void in the dark depths of the Nerubian Empire. Players can instead enlist with Chromie to defeat old enemies and face Azeroth's dangers in the Chromie's Codex event, available in Group Finder.
Players can find the rest of the celebration area in Tanaris, the capital city of the Caverns of Time. Discover many more hidden wonders during the World of Warcraft anniversary events and in The War Within!
