I have played World of Warcraft on and off for years, but I have not followed all the recent announcements closely. There seems to be a lot of interest around the Midnight expansion, and I would like to catch up without having to search through dozens of separate discussions. What information would you recommend checking first about the release, major features, and expected changes, especially for someone returning to the game after taking a break?

Someone returning to World of Warcraft after a long break can save time by focusing on the major expansion information first.
