Warcraft III Reforged was one of the biggest gaming catastrophes in 2020. This iconic game in a popular universe was awaited by thousands of players. The final product was not so impressive, though. What is more, many players and reviewers believed that it is inferior to the original. Well, the game lacked some features which were there in the first place. The situation was very bad. Has it changed? Let’s see if Warcraft 3 Reforged is Worth it in 2024.

Warcraft 3 Reforged – Missing features in 2024

After the release, Warcraft 3 Reforged was known for lacking features which were available in the original version. It took some time, but developers were able to bring back all lacking content in this matter. The last update added Save/Load possibility to online games. It was the last content missing.

Warcraft 3 Reforged – Bugs and Patches in 2024

There are bugs in Warcraft 3 Reforged. They are connected to multiplayer and single player experience. For example, some players prefer to run the game in the Classic graphics mode, as the new looks cause various problems for them.

The good news is that the game is not forgotten. However, the process of fixing it is quite slow. In 2023,1.35 patch was released in January, 1.36 in May, and a follow up 1.36.1 version in November. Right now, we are waiting for the first patch this year.

Warcraft 3 Reforged – Mods in 2024

Mods and community are definitely good points of the Warcraft 3 Reforged. Fans can create really impressive projects:

  1. We can name for example Warcraft 3 Re-Reforged. Modders try to remake all campaigns of Warcraft 3 Reforged. As we can read in a description:

Warcraft III Re-Reforged is a remake of Warcraft III: Reforged official campaigns as they were originally advertised. Each campaign features actually reforged cutscenes, re-imagined maps and missions, expanded lore and modernized gameplay. Relive our most beloved game's unforgettable stories and characters as never seen before!

  1. The beginning of 2024 was marked by the release of a very ambitious mod - Warcraft 2 Resurrected; Chronicles of the Second War. This impressive project brings Warcraft 2 campaign to the Warcraft 3 Reforged engine. As we can read in a description:

Relive the events of Warcraft II orc campaign, reimagined in Reforged engine. Experience rich lore from the events of the Second War, based on classic games and novels. Enjoy the gameplay that merges best features of WC2 and WC3, through RTS and RPG missions. Explore mysterious places and conquer mighty cities with beautifully crafted terrain and decorations.

Is Warcraft 3 Reforged Worth It in 2024?

To sum up - Is Warcraft 3 Reforged Worth It in 2024? This is a difficult question. The full price for the title is 29.99 Euros for Standard Edition. I would say that for the biggest fans, the game is worth it (especially if you want to use mods). However, probably, most of them most likely have bought the game already.

For other players, I would recommend waiting for a sale. The truth is that Blizzard Entertainment does not cut prices for W3 Reforged often, but they do that occasionally.
