Blizzard hid a secret message behind one of WoW’s most notorious bosses

Sept. 10 and 11 marked the 10-year anniversary of Siege of Orgrimmar’s release for World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria. The expansion finished with the addition of Patch 5.4, with its story coming to an end, but little did players know that one of the cinematics in the latest set of the expansion featured a secret message.

Terran Gregory, Cinematic Narrative Director at WoW, revealed on Sept. 10 on Twitter the exploding boards behind Garrosh Hellscream in the entry cinematic of Siege of Orgrimmar spelled “KEK” for precisely one frame. It’s uncertain whether players have never realized it before, and it was Gregory who broke it down to us after 10 full years. Nevertheless, it’s a smart and hilarious nod to the players.
