World of Warcraft‘s major 11.2 Ghosts of K’aresh update will add a highly-requested feature fans have been waiting years for–the ability to lean.
Yes, as spotted by Wowhead, the /lean emote is finally being added to Blizzard’s MMORPG. It’s the first major emote addition since 2008, when a large list of emotes were added as part of the game’s Wrath of the Lich King expansion.
Lean is something players, and particularly roleplayers, have wanted for quite some time, as the ability for NPC characters to lean against terrain was added during 2018’s Battle for Azeroth expansion. In 11.2, characters can use the lean emote to prop up against a wall and give off that oh-so-important mysterious adventurer vibe or practice being a mime and just lean in mid-air against nothing at all.
