I wasn’t sure we’d ever see the day
Diabloappearing on GOG was one thing, but I’m unreasonably excited to revisitWarcraft‘s humble beginnings. As of today,Warcraft: Orcs & HumansandWarcraft II Battle.net Editionare available digitally on the site. you’re able to grab them for $5.99 and $9.99, respectively, or go for a $14.99 bundle with both.
The firstWarcraft“plays and feels just like the original from 1994,” albeit updated to run on our current systems, whereas GOG’s release ofWarcraft IIhas two versions accessible from the launcher. “The classic one allows for the authentic experience and a fully functional multiplayer with Blizzard’s Battle.net online gaming service. The updated version comes with a number of fixes to provide full compatibility with modern machines as well as hi-resolution support and upscaling.”
This is such a long time coming, and I can’t wait. I have so many fond memories of struggling to play the originalWarcrafton my uncle’s laughably huge ’90s laptop but still loving the game anyway. I can’t see me fiddling withfirewall portsfor multiplayer, but I do think a full campaign run is in order.
