Then out of the blue this year for whatever reason, Blizzard quietly released a patched version of Warcraft 3 and Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne for the Mac, so that it’s playable natively in all modern versions of Mac OS X, including macOS Sierra 10.12.x, OS X El Capitan 10.11.x, Mavericks 10.9.x, and OS X Yosemite 10.10.x. Hopefully, Blizzard will announce improvements during the upcoming Blizzcon 2021.For some quick background, there was an extended gap where Warcraft 3 and Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne were unplayable in Mac OS X and macOS beyond Snow Leopard because Blizzard hadn’t updated the app to be compatible with modern releases. It is worth mentioning that the game was released in a poor state. The Spoils of War edition also includes extra hero skins and goodies for other Blizzard games such as a Diablo 3 pet, Heroes of the Storm heroes, StarCraft 2 console skins, a Hearthstone card back, and sprays and player icons for Overwatch. Both include the original Reign of Chaos campaign and The Frozen Throne expansion. Reforged is available on now for $29.99 for the Standard Edition or $39.99 for the Spoils of War Edition. For example, Starcraft 2 is another forgiving strategy game from Blizzard.

On top of the base game, the critically-acclaimed Frozen Throne expansion is also included.

All of this will be optional, of course, as you’ll be able to toggle between remastered and original graphics. The game will support 4K, every unit, map, and texture have been rebuilt, and all cut scenes have been remodeled. On the other hand, the game’s graphics will be completely overhauled.

So much so, that Reforge players will be able to play multiplayer against those running the original version of the game. When it comes to gameplay, Blizzard aims to create an extremely faithful remaster. The game promises to keep the same gameplay as the original, but supplement it with revamped graphics, improved modding support, an altered campaign, and balance changes. This explains why the announcement of Warcraft 3 Reforged created so much hype. Needless to say, Warcraft 3 is still considered a cult-classic.
