For some time, we’d known that Blizzard might be planning a significant update for Warcraft III: Reforged. In the age of data miners, it’s hard to keep certain things under wraps. However, the announcement Blizzard made during the presentation for the legendary franchise’s 30th anniversary exceeded all expectations.

Reforged did indeed receive a major graphical update. The release of the updated third installment was one of the biggest failures in gaming history (at least until Concord launched), and it made sense to assume that the company would try to redeem this setback.

What we didn’t expect was the announcement of remasters for the first two games. Now, all three games can be purchased in a single bundle, the Warcraft Remastered Chest. The announcement made a big splash, but we’ll wait for the first player reviews. We can only hope that a great franchise like Warcraft will finally receive remasters that are crafted with respect.
