Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct: how to watch and what to expect
A bunch of Warcraft characters lunging to the right in front of an orange sunset.

In lieu of a BlizzCon announcement, Blizzard Entertainment is holding a 30th anniversary stream to celebrate the Warcraft series' past and future.

The broadcast promises to feature all Warcraft franchises, from World of Warcraft to Hearthstone, Warcraft Rumble, and the even the original series entry: Warcraft: Orcs and Humans. It'll look back at the history of Warcraft, touch on the future with the Worldsoul Saga, and maybe cap it off with a couple of surprises. Here's everything you need to know about how to watch.
When is the Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct?
The anniversary direct will stream starting at 10 a.m. PT on Wednesday, November 13. There's no word on how long it'll be, but it'll be followed by a "World of Warcraft: 20 Years of Music" concert, which is complete with an orchestra and three choirs.
How to watch the Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct
Blizzard will be broadcasting the Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct on its official Warcraft channels. It'll be on Twitch and YouTube, although this year, it'll also be live streaming on TikTok. You can also watch the stream inside Hearthstone, Warcraft Rumble, and World of Warcraft to earn rewards. Blizzard will go into more detail on these rewards at a later date.

Sony INZONE H3 gaming headphones wired for Prime Big Deal Days

As far as Prime Big Deal Days discounts go, this next one on Sony's Official INZONE H3 gaming headphones is pretty shocking. Why? It's 52% off which is a huge discount anyway, but Sony's gear rarely goes on sale. If you want immersive gaming via a wired connection, spatial surround, low-latency audio, and a snug fit, these headphones are right for you. Normally $100, they're on sale today for just $48. It's only a limited-time deal, though, which means it could go away at any time. Don't wait.

 
Why shop this Sony INZONE H3 gaming headphones deal for Prime Big Deal Days?
We've covered Sony's INZONE gaming headsets before, as well as the Sony INZONE gaming earbuds and one thing we've certainly taken away from these products is they are standouts in their class. You get to experience immersive 360-degree spatial sound while playing. You benefit from crystal-clear communication thanks to the headset with a flip-to-mute mic. Plus, there's virtually no latency, if at all, thanks to the 3.5mm wired connection.
