Overview
- Reporting that surfaced Monday points to a new microholiday called Darkspear Dash found in World of Warcraft’s 12.0.5 Midnight patch files.
- The event would mark the game’s first Blizzard-run Pride celebration and takes its cue from the community’s Running of the Trolls charity run.
- The datamine lists June 27–29 on the Feathermoon-US server with a parade route from the Echo Isles to Silvermoon City’s fountain.
- Leaked assets show Pride-themed rewards, including a rainbow item, a tabard, and effects that leave a rainbow trail when players move.
- Blizzard has not confirmed the details, though organizer Dravvie said on Reddit that talks with the WoW team began about two years ago.
