Devoted players of World of Warcraft, you will now have even more reason to continue worshiping Blizzard. The company made it clear at BlizzCon that free copies of Diablo 3 await World of Warcraft subscribers, as soon as the game reaches stores. That's the regular edition, not the collector's edition or special edition or whatever the hell they call it.

Not so fast, folks, there is a catch, mind you. Apparently, in order to be eligible for this little bonus, you must have a 12 month "annual pass" - so that means paying $15 a month.

Here's more info:

For a limited time only, players who make a 12-month subscription commitment to World of Warcraft through the WoW Annual Pass will receive the following epic rewards:

• Diablo III FREE – Download the digital version via Battle.net for free when the game launches early next year. This is the full game, not a trial edition.
• Tyrael’s Charger WoW Flying Mount – Ride for the Archangel of Justice on all current and future characters on a single World of Warcraft account. Tyrael’s Charger will arrive via in-game mail with the upcoming launch of patch 4.3.
• Access to the Next WoW Expansion Beta Test – Get a guaranteed spot in the beta test for the next World of Warcraft expansion (at a time to be announced in the future).
