Mythic Entertainment announced today via its monthly newsletter that is will be releasing its first ‘live expansion’: Call to Arms.

The expansion content will be released over a period of several months, beginning in March with the Bitter Rivals event, which confirms rumors of introducing a new RvR scenario and two new player classes, the Orc Choppa, an offensive melee greenskin, and the Dwarf Slayer, another offensive melee career. Call to Arms conclude in June with the unveiling of a new dungeon zone called the Land of the Dead, based on Tomb Kings lore from the Warhammer Fantasy Battle tabletop game.

Call to Arms Live Expansion Schedule:

(1)  Call to Arms: Bitter Rivals Live Event (March): Successful completion of the live event allows head start access to the new Orc Choppa and Dwarf Slayer careers. The event will also introduce a new Chaos-themed RvR Scenario, Twisting Tower.

(2)  The Orc Choppa and Dwarf Slayer answer the Call to Arms and join WAR! (March).

(3)  Call to Arms: Beyond the Sands Live Event (April): The promise of great riches and powerful weapons comes from the south.

(4)  Call to Arms: Rise of the Tomb Kings Live Event (May): The race between Order and Destruction begins to unlock the Land of the Dead for their Realm.

(5)  Land of the Dead Opens (June): The deserts of Nehekhara open to players with the addition of a new RvR-gated dungeon zone. To gain access to the Land of the Dead, opposing Realms must battle for control of the zone to access dozens of new Public Quests, instanced lairs, and a massive new Tomb Kings dungeon to plunder in search of the Casket of Souls.

The Bitter Rivals live event kicks off in March and players who excel in the new RvR scenario, The Twisting Tower (available to all tiers), and complete the content of the event will gain early access to the new Choppa and Slayer classes.
