Warcraft 3 campaign returns after 23 years
Prepare your memories, because Blizzard has just delivered a surprise that is set to reignite the flame of classic strategy gaming. For the very first time since the legendary Frozen Throne expansion in 2003, Warcraft 3 is getting a brand new campaign.
This exciting addition, Warcraft 3: Forsaken Kingdom, is not just a side quest; it’s a two-part narrative adventure integrated into the recently remastered experience, Warcraft 3: Reforged, the 2020 update of the original Real-Time Strategy classic.
The campaign dives deep into the lore of the world, offering players a chance to explore new narratives. It kicks off with a prologue detailing the story of Arthas, the formidable antagonist from the World of Warcraft lore, before plunging the players into the grim reality of the Undercity—the capital of the undead Forsaken Kingdom. Here, players will encounter iconic figures like Sylvanas, Putress, and the brutal Scarlet Crusade.
The addition is designed to enrich the experience of Reforged, providing fresh content that complements the updated graphics and gameplay. Beyond the new campaign, the remaster is also receiving a free 3.0 update, ensuring that the foundation of the game remains fresh and engaging.
And the wait is over. Warcraft 3: Forsaken Kingdom is now available for purchase on Battle.net for $30, offering gamers a fantastic new story to explore. This kind of surprise expansion reminds us that even the greatest classics hold endless potential for new adventures.
