Robin Williams NPCs found in World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor beta code

A petition calling for an in-game tribute to Robin Williams in World of Warcraft was met with enthusiasm by Blizzard, which quickly announced on Twitter that it was "taking care of it." And it really wasn't kidding.

There's no real doubt that a tribute to Williams will appear in the game in one form or another—the official World of Warcraft account tweeted "We'll see you in-game" last week—but it's still great to see it happening so quickly. World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor is in beta testing now and goes live on November 13 .
