World of Warcraft fans already know that during the Blizzcon event new interesting pets will be available, and the 2009 edition is no exception.

Everyone who attends BlizzCon 2009 or purchases the BlizzCon Pay Per View event via DIRECTV will be joined by a new World of Warcraft in-game companion, Grunty the murloc marine. This tiny terror is fully armored and comes equipped with a gauss rifle, which he’ll occasionally fire into the air to make sure no invisible spacecraft are swooping in to attack. – WOW-Europe.com

MMO Champion published a little video of Grunty in action.
