We’re sure many World of Warcraft gamers are looking forward to getting their hands on Patch 6.1, and why is this? Well for starters Patch 6.1 will finally introduce the updated Blood Elf models which is one of the last races in the game to receive its updated textures and animation. The patch is also expected to introduce an Heirloom tab and also a new method of purchasing Heirlooms in the game.

However what makes Patch 6.1 interesting, or rather novel, is that Blizzard will be introducing a selfie camera to the game. Yes, you read that right, and no it is not one of Blizzard’s April Fools jokes, this is the real deal. The selfie camera is basically an item that will let you snap selfies in the game. To obtain it, gamers will need to complete a Follower Mission which is about 4 hours long and costs 20 Garrison Resources.

Upon the mission’s successful completion, which is apparently 100%, players will receive a S.E.L.F.I.E. Camera. Launching the camera is the same like how you would use an item and it will also bring up a special menu to allow gamers to snap photos of themselves. The camera will also cause your character to make some special faces.

There is even an option to upgrade your camera which is another mission, after which you will receive some filters such as Sketch Filter, Black and White filter, and the Death filter. It’s a pretty novel feature but hey, if we’re not going to get the dance studio, we guess we’ll settle for selfies!
