The cost to play World of Warcraft depends on the subscription plan you choose and how you would like to play.

World of Warcraft is a subscription-based game where you get access to the most recent content barring the most recent expansion pack. 
Most of the player base will be playing on the new content so if you decide to not buy this straight away, you may find parts of the world a tad empty.

There are a few price tiers but all will give you access to World of Warcraft Retail and WoW Classic, including Wrath of the Lich King Classic and Classic Hardcore Realms. 

If you are new to World of Warcraft, you can also play for free up to level 20. This will give you a taste of the game and help you decide if you want to subscribe.

You can also purchase additional in-game goodies such as mounts, pets, toys, transmogs, and game services from the online store or in-game shop.

At the time of writing, WoW has had nine expansion packs over the years which has kept the game fresh with new content, mechanics, stories, characters and ideas.

• The Burning Crusade (2007)
• Wrath of the Lich King (2008)
• Cataclysm (2010)
• Mists of Pandaria (2012)
• Warlords of Draenor (2014)
• Legion (2016)
• Battle for Azeroth (2018)
• Shadowlands (2020)
• Dragonflight (2022)

 At BlizzCon 2023, Blizzard announced the names of the next three expansions and how the three will be linked with a story arc. These have yet to have release dates announced. Exciting stuff for MMORPG enjoyers!

• The War Within
• Midnight
• The Last Titan

That's a difficult question to answer, as both versions of World of Warcraft have their pros and cons. Ultimately, it depends on your personal preference and play style. Here are some factors to consider:

• Gameplay: Classic WoW is more challenging, slower-paced, and requires more cooperation and communication with other players. Retail WoW is more streamlined, fast-paced, and offers more convenience and accessibility features.

• Content: Classic WoW has less content, but it is more faithful to the original game and its expansions. Retail WoW has more content, but it is more subject to changes and updates that may alter the game experience.

• Community: Classic WoW is more community-driven, where you interact with other players to get things done. Retail WoW is more solo-friendly, where you can use tools like Dungeon Finder and Raid Finder to join groups automatically.

• Graphics: Classic WoW has lower graphics quality, but it also has lower system requirements and a more nostalgic feel. Retail WoW has higher graphics quality, but it also has higher system requirements and a more modern look.
