World of Warcraft could soon see a major shakeup to how players get around its world, as it appears Blizzard may be working on making dragonriding work in all of the game’s old content.
The game’s latest expansion, Dragonflight, introduced the excellent dragonriding feature, which has revolutionized getting from point A to point B in Blizzard’s MMORPG. For the majority of WoW’s existence, flying meant players simply needed to mount up and point their character in a direction. They would then fly there at far faster speeds than simply walking or riding a ground mount.
On the PTR, Dynamic Flying (Dragonriding) is currently enabled on Kalimdor, Eastern Kingdoms, and all expansion zones that you can fly in👀 pic.twitter.com/cUfvHw1PRe

Dragonflight changed that, making flying on the game’s new dragonriding mounts dynamic and fun. Players can now dive to increase their speed, do aerial acrobatics, soar skyward, and more, and it has turned one of WoW’s most passive activities into fun gameplay all its own. The only caveat currently is that dragonriding only works for specific dragonriding mounts and only in the new Dragon Isles zones.
