- New 6-month WoW subscription rewards include the Timbered Sky Snake mount and Timbered Air Snakelet pet.

World of Warcraft enthusiasts who purchase at least six months of subscription time can now enjoy the new Timbered Sky Snake mount for modern WoW and the Timbered Air Snakelet pet for Classic. These items, inspired by the 2025 Zodiac Sign, are available to players who buy or are already subscribed to bulk World of Warcraft subscriptions, with rewards distributed no later than January 31, 2025.
Since 2018, World of Warcraft has been rewarding players with bonus in-game items for subscribing for six or more months, often themed around the lunar Zodiac signs. For instance, the Auspicious Arborwyrm was offered for 2024, the Year of the Wood Dragon.
The latest six-month subscription offer for 2025 introduces the Timbered Sky Snake, a flying mount symbolizing the Year of the Wood Snake for retail WoW, and the Timbered Air Snakelet, its companion pet for Cataclysm Classic. These rewards are automatically granted to qualifying subscribers, but can also be purchased separately in-game for $25 and $10 respectively. The Timbered Sky Snakelet, a matching pet for modern WoW, is available for $10 from the Battle.net shop, though it is not part of the subscription offer.
January 2025 Six-Month WoW Subscription Offer
- Timbered Sky Snake skyriding mount for World of Warcraft: The War Within
- Timbered Air Snakelet, a small version of the mount, as a pet for Cataclysm Classic
Players on existing recurring subscriptions will also receive these rewards. Both items must be redeemed by January 31, 2026, before they are likely replaced by new items themed around the Year of the Fire Horse.
Subscribers opting for a 12-month World of Warcraft subscription will also receive additional rewards, including the Startouched Furline, Gigantic Grrloc, and Charming Courier mounts for modern WoW, and the Lava Drake mount and Swoopy pet for Classic. They will also automatically receive the six-month subscription offer in July, making this a great deal for avid mount collectors.
World of Warcraft's 2025 roadmap includes two major patches starting with 11.1, and possibly player housing by year's end for retail WoW. For Classic, progression servers are advancing to Mists of Pandaria, new anniversary realms will progress from vanilla to The Burning Crusade, and Season of Discovery will enter its final phase. With such expansive plans across all versions of World of Warcraft, securing a bulk subscription now is a wise choice for any dedicated player.
