Speculation of an old world revamp in one form or another has been around quite a while, as dataminers keep finding updated models all over the place. 10.2 is no different, as there are even more old models getting the shiny treatment.

11.0 is still very much a mystery so anything is possible in terms of remaking parts of the old world. It has been a while since Cataclysm, so we might be due! However, it’s also possible all this is just part of a regular update path for the game, as individual models will get upgraded over time.
Would you want another old world revamp?
