The strategy game “Warcraft III: Reforged” has been postponed at the last minute. Blizzard intended to release it within the next 2 weeks.
For many old and new Warcraft fans, it was supposed to be the highlight of the year. Warcraft III was remade and was to be released as the “Reforged” version. Essentially, the same game with updated graphics and minor adjustments. For months, the launcher stated the release date as “on or before December 31, 2019.” But Blizzard cannot meet this date. The release of Warcraft III: Reforged has been postponed to 2020.
Why the delay? In a blog post, Blizzard explains that they are working hard on the game, but time simply isn’t enough to meet their own quality standards. To release Warcraft III: Reforged in high quality, the developers need a little more time. Therefore, the release will no longer be this year.
When will the game be released now? Fans won’t have to wait much longer for Warcraft III: Reforged. The new release date is January 28, 2020 – just under a month later. Then we will be able to admire the revamped version of the strategy classic and judge for ourselves whether the rather unusual graphics of the game fit with the good old campaign.
WC3: Reforged even looks better than WoW – an absurd situation.
It is only annoying for those who were looking forward to the game during the Christmas holidays. Those who wanted to play it on vacation will likely be disappointed now.
The community is disappointed: The first reactions are clearly disappointed. Many players are dissatisfied that Blizzard could not keep another promise. However, there are also some players who say: It’s good this way. Reforged needs more time because in its current state, the game would not be of the quality that players deserve.
Are you angry about this delay? Or is it better if the developers polish it up a bit more so that the remake reaches the quality of its predecessor?
