World of Warcraft Patch 11.1: A Tribute to Mats Steen and Undermine's New Content
World of Warcraft's upcoming Patch 11.1 is shaping up to be a significant update, featuring new content in Undermine and a touching tribute to the late Mats Steen. Dataminers have uncovered evidence suggesting the addition of Lord Ibelin Redmoore, an NPC based on Steen's iconic World of Warcraft character. This inclusion serves as a heartfelt memorial to Steen, the subject of the documentary "The Remarkable Life of Ibelin."
The patch, expected around February 25th, will introduce new adventures within the Goblin capital of Undermine. However, Lord Ibelin Redmoore, bearing the title "Private Investigator," stands out as a unique addition unrelated to Undermine's storyline. This title reflects Steen's renowned roleplaying career as a detective in Stormwind, where he interacted extensively with fellow players.
Speculation abounds regarding Ibelin's in-game presence. Some believe he may roam Stormwind's taverns, while others suggest he might follow a path mirroring Steen's real-life virtual journeys. His appearance could even be on the Public Test Realm (PTR) before the official release.
This marks the third tribute to Ibelin within World of Warcraft. Previous tributes include a replica of his real-life grave and a charity bundle featuring the Reven fox pet and backpack, benefiting CureDuchenne. These gestures underscore the profound impact Steen's story had on the World of Warcraft community.
