Warcraft III: Reforged Is Now Coming Out This Coming January

Warcraft

The final release date for Warcraft III: Reforged is now set for January with all of the Warcraft III features we have been waiting for

Those looking to get in on Warcraft III: Reforged can stop looking and start waiting, as the release date is now set down for January 28th. I know fans were hoping to get their hands on it before the end of the year, but it looks like it took a bit longer for Blizzard to get everything ironed out for it and then game is now coming when it is ready. It has been a bit of a wait since it was first revealed back in 2018, but now we will be able to get our Warcraft III on no matter the version of the game you have loaded on your PC. Yes, that means that there will be cross-version play mixed in here for those that do not want to pick up the newer version of it all.

With the date also comes a list of all the new ways to pick up Warcraft III here. That is, there is the basic version that will bring along the upgraded visuals and rebuilt world editor in the game. Then for the extra $10 USD, you can get the Spoils Of War Edition for $39.99 USD which houses a few little extras for the other various non-Warcraft titles out there. As well as some cosmetics to enjoy when playing against all of your friends in the various missions and all. As long as you are still giving the company your money, that is. This is a world-wide release and not something that is localized and all…
