It's title is "Mists of Pandaria - Ingame Cinematic - The Battle of Serpent's Heart"

It's about the horde and alliance entering a huge battle infront of the infamous un-finished jade dragon statue ive been seeing in tons of screenies since its discovery, the last part of the prophecy being inscribed through magic on the shrine depicting the pandaren in peace, pandaren at war, and the previously blank space, a powerful shaa being released.

Im not sure if its Blizzard made or not since there is no source nor Blizz's logo at the beginning, and the orc doesnt look well rendered for any in-game realism (like, his face and arms arent as well worn and lined as in-game), but the cinematic graphics remind me a lot of the previous in-game ones we've had ever since the Wrathgate. Can anyone confirm?

The cinematic from that event was still missing from the game as of the previous build, so if it's real I'm not sure where they got it. Perhaps it's a datamined rough cut from the database?

@Wain: not sure, it was posted on a random chat thread on magistream, went to youtube to get more details through comments or the youtube-poster's little info box but nuffin in regards to where it came from and what questline triggers it. I was curious cause it looks like blizz but it looks like they had some finer detailing to do, it looks a tad unfinished on the orc at least

@Kayb: Ahh so im not the only one who has posted it, didnt know there were other scenes too :0

Wonder if this one and any of the others will make it back into the game, edited or original. I really loved the panda, the prophecy stone, and then the sha being released

Looks like the battlescene that's missing, that explains the big sha-thing on he top of the shattered statue :)

Pretty nice, imho. It would be almost as epic as Wrathgate if it had LK in it :P

This should be from one of the final quests in Jade Forest.

This scene and the others that MMO champion posted make me want to say "To heck with live actors, get whoever made these to do the supposedly-gonna-be-made WoW Movie."
