The 30 years of Warcraft will have a colossal tribute

We don’t have to be especially cabalistic, but it makes us think that the saga Warcraft has had so much relationship with the years ending in four. It was in 1994 when the first game appeared, the famous Orcs and Humans and it was in 2004 when those from Irvine went all out to put that mythical world of warcraft. So all the following years ending in four have become a reason for anniversary.

The fact is that in 2024 we celebrate two crucial anniversaries within Blizzard. On the one hand, the two decades of existence of the most famous, well-known and profitable MMO in the world, and on the other, the 30 years since someone thought of creating that discreet but devilishly fun strategy title for PC and Mac called Warcraft. So everything we are learning about activities and new titles that the Americans are going to launch are automatic news.

A tribute that no one expected for Warcraft

The fact is that we were all so calm in our houses, waiting to see what was next. Blizzard was going to announce after confirmation that StarCraft will arrive on Xbox Game Pass when the bomb appeared: those from Irvine are preparing a version Remastered of his colossal Warcraft II Tides of Darknesswhich will return to PC and Mac to delight those who played it back in 1995

This is how they have leaked it in an X account where they explain that «Blizzard has updated its game catalog with a new title: Warcraft II: Remastered Internal Alpha. “This update also adds background images and initial logos for the likely next product.” So as I already did with Diablo II a few years ago (2021) with the edition called Resurrected.

Blizzard has updated its game catalog with a new title: “Warcraft II: Remastered Internal Alpha.”

This update also adds initial background images and logos for the likely upcoming product.

This remastering will be a real event because truly, we are looking at the game that catapulted the saga and began to create the legend of its lorewhich already in those years was capable of incorporating multiplayer options and in 1996, after the creation of Battle.netobtained a specific edition for the North American gaming platform. So this continuation of the first Warcraft It is, for many, the door that opened the world of classics Blizzard.

Why start with the second game?

Yeah Blizzard has chosen to begin the remastering with the second game (in the image and likeness of Konami with its second Silent Hill) is because, if you remember what it was like Orcs and Humansif they wanted to bring it to the present it could not have been done as a simple remastering, but rather they would have had to subject it to extensive work to completely reconstruct the game and, although it was very advanced for its time, it still had a much more limited structure and simpler than that of Warcraft II which, by the way, had an expansion in 1996 called Beyond the Dark Portal and that, we understand, Blizzard will add it to the package of this launch that I will surely announce in the coming days (right?).
