Creating a Blizzard Account

The first thing you need to do is create a Blizzard account. You can do so through this link, and you’re going to need a handful of things to log in to use the account. You’re going to answer the standard questions that come with creating a new account: name, birth date, email, a password for the account, and then a series of security questions for that account only you would know. By the end, you’re likely going to need to confirm your account by replying to an email associated to your Blizzard account. Make sure to answer it to activate your account correctly.

For those who may have forgotten the password of their account, you can visit here to reset your password. You’re going to need to remember what email address is connected to that account, though.

Apply for a Subscription for World of Warcraft

Download

Unfortunately, you do need to apply for a traditional World of Warcraft subscription. While it does give you access to the main World of Warcraft game, you’re going to have access to all of the features in WoW: Classic. You can choose from three different subscription types:

  • 1 month: $14.99
  • 3 months: $13.99 per month – total $41.97 every three months
  • 6 months: $12.99 per month – total $77.94 every six months

Those who choose the longer monthly options are going to save more money in the long-run, but you may not play the game as much as you think.

Download Battle.net

When you have a subscription to the game, you’re going to have access to WoW: Classic. However, you still need to download the game’s launcher. You’re going to access this area every time you want to load up the game. You can find it on the Blizzard website, and you’re also going to need your Blizzard account to access it. Here’s the download you’re going to need to have on your computer. You’re going to go through a few steps, but they should be relatively straightforward with easy to follow steps.

Installing WoW: Classic

While Blizzard has an excellent collection, you’re going to want to focus on World of Warcraft. You may notice you don’t see it on the left side at all. Don’t worry. It’s there but in a unique location.
