Ye must research these things before ye post. You are quite a ways off. Just because something is set in a more prominently medieval-seeming setting does not mean it's a fantasy game.

Fictional creatures and set in the past = fantasy. This is a law rather than a rule of thumb if the creatures are mythical beasts.
Fictional creatures and set in the future = science fiction, provided that they're not mythical beasts. If they are then it becomes scifi fantasy (hybrid genre).
Scifi can be set in the past if it's subject matter is mostly scientific. IE time travel or whatever.
This game has what looks to be a troll/ogre/orc, as well as various other beasts that a clearly based on mythical beasts. That places it firmly in the fantasy RPG genre. Also it involves two sides fighting each other, that's it's first similarity with WoW, which also involves two warring sides. Next similarity is, well, look at it - it looks like it was made by the same people, only with far better graphics. The whole style and attitude is identical.
And if you read about the features, they all sound pretty standard, and rather dull. This game doesn't let you do anything interesting or original, in fact it doesn't let you do anything that any other games haven't offered. I don't see why I should buy this game or find it appealing when it doesn't offer me anything other than a dull same-old grind through the same old shit that people THINK I want.
This is what it is these days, companies are churning out games that only fit into a certain niche. There's no wide horizon of games and styles, there's just a bunch of very similar games that all borrow from one another. It's really dull.
