The real-world housing market in the US has reached the most unaffordable levels in history, but if you want to buy a home in World of Warcraft, it should be much easier with the game recently adding player housing. To hype that up, Blizzard and the real estate marketplace Zillow have announced a custom “Zillow for Warcraft” website that allows people to browse in-game homes for World of Warcraft.
The website will look familiar to anyone who has browsed Zillow before, but in place of your local city is a map of Azeroth with homes dotted all over the place. Users can click on a home to see more photos and details about a property, like the “Seaside Shrine,” which has a grog station and a royal purple reading nook. Users can click “Contact Agent” to send an email to learn more about the property and how to move in.
Of course, the website is plastered with advertisements for World of Warcraft: Midnight, the upcoming expansion that releases on March 2. Player housing came to WoW back in December for people who preordered Midnight.
