			Blizzard would later claim that the books are not canon<ref>Bashiok during Ask CDev Round 2 (June 2011): <blockquote>The RPG books were created to provide an engaging table-top role-playing experience, which sometimes required diverging from the established video game canon. Blizzard helped generate a great deal of the content within the RPG books, so there will be times when ideas from the RPG will make their way into the game and official lore, but you are much better off considering the RPG books non-canonical unless otherwise stated.</blockquote></ref>, but that is patently false in light of the major support given by them and also outside the [[design choices\|scope of this project]].

	{{~~Stub~~}}		[[File:World of Warcraft RPG cover.jpg\|300px\|thumb\|right\|The cover for ''World of Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game''.]]

			The ''Warcraft'' roleplaying games were published by [[White Wolf Publishing]] through its imprints [[Sword & Sorcery]] and [[Arthaus]]. It was initially based off ''Dungeons & Dragons'' 3<sup>rd</sup> edition, but it was quickly adapted to 3.5. Blizzard specifically stated that the books are valuable to know the setting:
			<blockquote>Want to know more about the lore of World of Warcraft? The game doesn't require any additional reading to play. However, you might enjoy gaining a more detailed knowledge of Warcraft lore. […] Warcraft Role-Playing Games provide a wealth of information about Warcraft lore.<ref>"[https://web.archive.org/web/20060315204225/http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/story/index.html History of Warcraft]" (March 2006)</ref></blockquote>

			Blizzard employees, such as [[wow:Chris Metzen\|Chris Metzen]] and [[wow:Bob Fitch\|Bob Fitch]], were deeply involved in the making of these books.<ref>Every book lists the involvement of Blizzard employees in the credits. {{sl}} specifically states on its backcover: "Designed with extensive input from the creative minds behind the Warcraft computer games".</ref> The writing of these books was difficult, however, because MMO updates could invalidate portions of the text:
			<blockquote>One problem is that, at best, we write a book about 8 months before it hits shelves. Thanks to the fluid nature of video game development, that means that what we wrote down as accurate 8 months ago may no longer be appropriate.<ref>"[https://web.archive.org/web/20150501081426/https://www.blizzplanet.com/blog/comments/world_of_warcraft_rpg_dark_factions___luke_johnson_qa World of Warcraft RPG: Dark Factions - Luke Johnson Q&A]" (January 2008)</ref></blockquote>

			Production ended after the expiration of the licensing deal:
			<blockquote>The Rights reversed back to Blizzard. We were only under licensing agreement to do x amount of books. You'll have to talk to Blizzard about future WoW RPG releases:)<ref>"[https://web.archive.org/web/20141007204350/https://worldofwarcraft.judgehype.com/news/warcraft-rpg-et-wow-rpg-rien-de-neuf-a-l-horizon-117056/ Warcraft RPG et WoW RPG : Rien de neuf à l'horizon]" (March 2009), translated</ref></blockquote>
