Blizzard is continuously making true to its promising of dishing out updates for its titles and "World of Warcraft" is about to have its own patch for this year. Finally, the highly anticipated 7.1.5 patch update is finally hitting "WoW" servers next week, as Blizzard made the announcement.
Mark your calendars as the "World of Warcraft" 7.1.5 patch will go live on Jan. 10, Tuesday. Although it is not as extensive as the upcoming 7.2 update, GameSpot noted that the 7.1.5 patch is still a big one filled with class balances, new legendaries, Nighthold Raid prep, and the return of the Brawler's Guild. But one thing stood out in this "lesser" update: there will be a series of micro-holidays when the patch goes live. This is something that players should look forward to.

The "WoW" 7.1.5 patch was announced during the Blizzcon last November 2016. Right after, it hit PTR. The announcement of the "lesser" update came following the launch of "WoW" 7.1.0 patch, with Blizzard ensuring that they are sticking to providing constant updates unlike in their previous titles.
The micro-holidays mentioned earlier are part of the latest update where there will be 1- to 3-day shorter in-game events held "just for fun." Once the update is launched, "World of Warcraft" players will find a list of events in their calendars.
Another addition to the update, or more like return, is the Brawler's Guild, the single-player mode where players battle against different bosses. However, this is by invitation-only. Players will need to obtain a Blood-soaked Invitation first. They can get this by completing dungeons or opening an Emissary chest.
The latest patch also brings in content of Mists of Pandaria into the Timewalking feature, to be specific 6 dungeons. These include "Stormstout Brewery," "Temple of Jade Serpent," "Shado-Pan Monastery," "Siege of Niuzao Temple," "Gate of the Setting Sun," and "Mogu'shan Palace," per VG247.
