Warcraft 3 Reforged gets 2.0 patch, Warcraft 1 & 2 get remastered today

As a longtime Warcraft fan who vividly remembers the days of battling orcs as a young lad, this announcement feels like a nostalgic trip down memory lane! I can still recall the thrill of commanding armies and conquering territories in the original games, so seeing them get remastered for modern gaming is an absolute treat.


The 30th Anniversary Direct for Warcraft isn’t just about honoring the legendary MMORPG, World of Warcraft. Instead, it’s about revisiting the roots of the franchise. Blizzard is celebrating the strategy game origins of Warcraft by remastering the original Warcraft trilogy. This isn’t limited to a 2.0 update for Warcraft 3: Reforged; it also involves updating the first two Warcraft games. All these improvements are bundled in the new Warcraft Remastered Battle Chest.

The Warcraft Remastered Battle Chest contains an upgraded version of Warcraft 3: Reforged, along with refurbished editions of original Warcraft, Warcraft 2, Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, and Warcraft 2: Battle.net Edition. Enhancements include a revamped user interface, sharper graphics, and modern Ranked Play options. For those who appreciate the classic look, there’s an option to switch to vintage graphics for each game.

Blizzard remains dedicated to supporting Warcraft 3: Reforged, despite its rocky initial release. While there were hints of their ongoing interest when they released an update for Ranked Play a couple of years back, it wasn’t until recently that any new developments concerning the game surfaced.
