Blizzard announce 2012 World of Warcraft Arena Pass

Blizzard has announced that sign ups for the 2012 World of Warcraft Arena Pass will begin on 10 April. 
The Arena Pass is a tournament in which players complete against one another in a “dedicated Arena sandbox”. Those that sign up will be using level-85 character templates with gear from the Cataclysm expansion. 
There’s no word on the price of the 2012 Arena Pass yet, but last year it cost $20.
Everyone that signs up and competes in the 2012 Arena Pass will be rewarded with an Armoured Murloc in-game pet. The very best players will receive a ‘Vanquisher’ title for their own characters.
Furthermore, if you purchase an Arena Pass as well as the upcoming Mists of Pandaria expansion you will get access to a level-90 realm and “upgraded epic gear”.
