Blizzard has released a cinematic trailer of Wrath of Lich King. I suggest you get the downloadable HD version for full screen goodness.

The video looks very pretty but is very thin on actual content. Compared to the Warhammer trailer I blogged about yesterday, the WAR trailer has tons of fun stuff on the expected gameplay of the game, in addition to looking great. I think Paul Barnett knew what he was talking about when he said they’ve fully embraced the rich background of Warhammer, while the WoW folks always need to come up with new IP.
