Initially, Blizzard aimed for a December release, before the rollover to 2020. However, things don’t always go as planned, and the Reforged remaster has been delayed to January 28, 2020.
We don’t just know the release date, though. Blizzard are so sure that January 28 will be Reforged’s release day that we also know the time the game is meant to be released: 6 p.m. EST/3 p.m. PST/11 p.m. GMT.
Warcraft 3: Reforged isn’t just bringing the classic RTS and its expansion, The Frozen Throne, to the modern age with a new coat of paint. The game’s balance is also being tweaked for this new edition, and it’s getting new social and matchmaking features.
It’s true that Warcraft 3 and The Frozen Throne both have stellar campaigns, but how the community will bring the Warcraft 3 custom game scene back to life will be the most interesting aspect of this remaster. We can easily bet on DotA’s last version making its way to the client, but there are nearly limitless custom games just waiting to be ported.
