Blizzard Trademarks "The Dark Below" - WoW or D3 Expansion?
Blizzard just trademarked "The Dark Below" and it definitely looks like it has something to do with a new game or expansion!
It could be anything, but it could also be the next WoW expansion. With Gamescom coming up in a couple of days, we could also be looking at the name of the next Diablo 3 expansion.
In any case, it looks like it's time to jump on the speculation train until we can get our hands on more information.

Note that we have found out about all previous WoW expansion names ahead of time in this exact manner.
That said, my money is on a Diablo 3 expansion."The Dark Below" could mean one of two things: Either Hell and all the associated fire and brimstone, in which case it seems more Diablo-esque, or it could also mean The deep abysses and caverns below the surface of land and ocean. Going in that vein, Ozumat from Cataclysm (the giant octopus from the Throne of the Tides) was styled as <Fiend of the Dark Below>.
Still, I think a Hell-themed Diablo expansion seems more likely. If it is a WoW expansion, though, it looks like it's leaning towards an Old God theme.
