A Warcraft 2 remaster might have simply been leaked forward of a significant celebration for the franchise’s thirtieth anniversary, which is because of happen subsequent week.
As noticed by Redditor Neggy5, a brand new itemizing on monitoring web site BlizzTrack, which displays modifications within the backend of the corporate’s Battle.web service, factors to the existence of an inside alpha take a look at for one thing known as Warcraft 2: Remastered.
All issues thought-about, it is fairly tough to think about that that is something aside from a reworked trendy model of the seminal 1995 RTS, which was initially titled Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness.
The itemizing provides virtually nothing away, as you may think, however it does doubtlessly affirm the existence of a remaster that could be introduced throughout subsequent week’s celebration.
In line with the Redditor who found the itemizing, an upcoming replace for the controversial Warcraft 3: Reforged was additionally found on the BlizzTrack web site, so evidently Blizzard’s makes an attempt to redeem that ill-received rework additionally proceed, though the character of stated replace hasn’t been revealed.
It is also price noting that none of this has formally been confirmed; this might properly simply be an experimental try on Blizzard’s half to undergo choices fairly than a affirmation that one thing concrete is within the works.
Nonetheless, the timing of this leak appears fairly serendipitous with the Warcraft anniversary stream attributable to air subsequent week, so I would not be stunned if a Warcraft 2 announcement was formally made at that time.
The Warcraft anniversary stream airs a number of months after Blizzard launched World of Warcraft: The Struggle Inside, the tenth main growth for the long-running MMORPG, which launched again in August.
It is also arriving after builders on stated MMO fashioned Blizzard’s first wall-to-wall union again in July, which basically means stated union represents the whole studio fairly than a single unit inside the firm.
