IPv6 will land in World of Warcraft

Dreaded since the 1990s, the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses would eventually take place over the next 9-18 months. The time is finally in the adoption of IPv6. Migration is often inconspicuous, being an internal matter for the operators. But sometimes it breaks out openly as today: the inescapable network game World of Warcraft will soon make its transformation.

The next patch for WoW would bring into effect compatibility. The IPv6 connection will obviously not be enabled by default since all players are not on a network compatible, but it will replace IPv4, if possible.
