The goblins are seen building a rocket ship to journey into the [[Twisting Nether]] named the [[X-52 Nether-Rocket]].

It is advisable to stay in a building or fly above the ground if you need to go away from keyboard if you play in a PvP realm or are PvP flagged. Area 52 death machines kill roof-campers, but engineers can control them with {{loot|Uncommon|Gnomish Universal Remote}}.

-== Pop-culture References ==
-Area 52 has a few references to the outside world in it. The name of the town itself is a reference.
-*The X2 Nether Rocket has many goblins working on it, most of whom are clad in Star Trek inspired uniforms.
-*Two of the goblins working on the X2 Nether Rocket have a dialogue running along the lines of Elton John's [[wikipedia:Rocket Man|Rocket Man]].
-*The X2 name is a reference to the [[wikipedia:X-plane (aircraft)|X-plane]], the experimental US airplane/rocket program.
-*The town's name is a reference to [[wikipedia:Area 51|Area 51]], a US military base which has strong pop culture ties to extra-terrestrials and their space-faring technology.
-*When going through the doors, players receive a short "debuff" (with no apparent effects) from the A-52 Neuralyzer, which says "The flash of light you did not see did not erase your memories." In the film ''[[wikipedia:Men in Black (film)|Men in Black]]'', agents were issued a device, also called a Neuralyzer, that wiped people's memories with a flash of light whenever they had any contact with aliens.
-*[[Innkeeper Remi Dodoso]]'s name in [[Area 52]] spells out the notes 'Re' 'Mi' 'Do' 'Do' 'So' in the [[wikipedia:solfege|solfege]] scale. This is a reference to the musical theme used in the movie [[Wikipedia:Close Encounters of the Third Kind|Close Encounters of the Third Kind]] to communicate with the aliens which have landed on Earth.
-* Area 52 and the X2 rocket also periodically get attacked by [[Negatron]], a reference to Megatron from the Transformers series.
