In World of Warcraft , the new pet “Left Shark” is coming with 6.2, a somewhat obscure reference to an incident from Katy Perry’s halftime show at the Superbowl.
“It’s been two months of Internet time – in human years, that would be 78,” writes the US gaming magazine Polygon regarding the news about WoW’s latest modernism. Because data miners from WoW-Head have found the pet “Left Shark” in the database. It is supposed to appear with the next patch 6.2.
Left Shark comes from the Superbowl halftime show of pop star “Katy Perry.” She performed a number where two dancers in blue shark costumes danced in the background. The left shark danced so poorly that it became an Internet meme: Left Shark, indeed the left shark. Now, it seems that this will land in World of Warcraft as a pet with some delay. Observers wonder if such short-term things are worth being immortalized forever in an MMORPG.
