The WoW-themed Peggle mash-up is a joint collaboration between PopCap Games and World of Warcraft developer Blizzard Entertainment.

Peggle in World of Warcraft

If Peggle is like Crack and World of Warcraft is like heroin, then what do you get when you combine the two? An unstoppable gaming addiction! A new free add-on for World of Warcraft from PopCap Games gives players the ability to play Peggle in the game. This isn’t the first time PopCap has invaded Blizzard’s MMO - the company released a similar add-on for the game that brought Bejeweled into the MMO.

The Wow addon offers a Quick Play mode with 12 stages based on major locations in WoW, two Peggle masters - alongside a Peggle Talent Tree, a Duel Mode: to compete in a quick match against other players, a battle mode that allows you to create custom leaderboards for friends and guildmates and new way to “roll” for loot (best shot gets the item) using the /peggleloot.
