ActionTrip had a chance to interview Lead Designer Jeff Kaplan and Art Director Chris Robinson today at the Leipzig Games Convention.
The big news? The 25-person raid instance being added before Wrath of the Lich King, in an upcoming content patch, will be none other than Sunwell Plateau. We talked about this a bit during BlizzCon, but it was only hinted at as of that point. Now it's official, and it's also going to include a 5-person instance with both Normal and Heroic modes.
Head over to ActionTrip's interview to read more, and of course keep an eye out on Curse tonight, as we'll have our very own video interview with Jeff Kaplan that has some cool information that just might be brand-new to everyone.

Very nice... more heroics :) Seems to lead into WotLK's magic-based storylines smoothly as well, as far as lore is concerned (as well as geographically :P).
It wasn't mentioned in the interview, but past interviews hinted that it'll be Kil'jaeden. I'd also expect to see Kael'thas again, since he doesn't actually die in Tempest Keep, and has pledged his loyalty to Kil'jaeden.
Plus, it's the source of all the power of the Blood Elves, so Kael will definitely want to be involved in whatever sinister plot is unfolding there.
no info on the major-vilain in sunwell?
