World of Warcraft Reveals First 6-Month Subscription Offer of 2025

Summary

• Six months of WoW subscription unlocks the Timbered Sky Snake mount and Timbered Air Snakelet pet.
• Subscribers receive rewards by January 31, 2025, with redemption required before 2026.
• Twelve-month subscriptions include additional mounts and pets.

World of Warcraft is offering a fantastic new in-game reward for players who purchase a six-month subscription: the majestic Timbered Sky Snake mount for modern WoW, and its adorable counterpart, the Timbered Air Snakelet pet for Classic WoW. Inspired by the 2025 Zodiac sign, these items will be granted to eligible accounts by January 31, 2025. Don't forget to redeem them before 2026!

Since 2018, WoW has rewarded long-term subscribers with exclusive in-game items, typically updated in January and July. Past rewards, like 2024's Auspicious Arborwyrm, have often reflected the lunar zodiac.

The Timbered Sky Snake, a flying mount for retail WoW, and the Timbered Air Snakelet pet for Cataclysm Classic, represent the Year of the Wood Snake. These items are included with a six-month subscription but can also be purchased individually from the in-game store ($25 for the mount, $10 for the pet). A separate pet, the Timbered Sky Snakelet, is available for modern WoW via the Battle.net shop for $10, but isn't part of the subscription offer.

January 2025 Six-Month WoW Subscription Offer

• Timbered Sky Snake mount for World of Warcraft: Dragonflight
• Timbered Air Snakelet pet for Cataclysm Classic

Existing subscribers will also receive these rewards. They will be delivered to qualifying Battle.net accounts by January 31, 2025, and must be redeemed before the same date in 2026, when they'll likely be replaced with items themed around the Year of the Fire Horse.

Beyond the Timbered Sky Snake and Air Snakelet, a 12-month subscription grants even more rewards: the Startouched Furline, Gigantic Grrloc, and Charming Courier mounts for modern WoW, and the Lava Drake mount and Swoopy pet for Classic. July's six-month rewards are also included, making this a particularly attractive offer for mount collectors.

With WoW's exciting 2025 roadmap—including major patches for retail WoW (starting with 11.1), potential player housing, Classic's progression servers reaching Mists of Pandaria, and the final phase of the Season of Discovery—now is an excellent time to secure a long-term subscription.
