Danish site Jubii.dk reports that the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion, The Burning Crusade, has been delayed into to 2007. Their source is from within Vivendi in Denmark, but nothing has been confirmed as of now. According to Jubii, Blizzard will announce the news tomorrow (Tuesday).

Since the beta has just started well over week ago, it’s unsure how much testing Blizzard can get done before the scheduled November release date. I guess we’ll have to see if anything happens tomorrow.
