'We loved what we did with StarCraft Remastered but we felt with Warcraft 3 because it was the first 3D game that we had, we could go further with the artistic styling,' Bridenbecker says. While StarCraft was fuelled by the competitive scene surrounding the game, the reasons behind choosing Warcraft 3 were aplenty.

'StarCraft was an obvious one, it's still broadcast on TV and you have these nice beautiful HDTVs when you're watching a game that's rendered in 640x480, it loses some of the appeal,' Sousa explains 'So for that we were definitely thinking of upping the resolution so it'll be exactly the same game but it'll look better.' At BlizzCon 2018, Gadgets 360 spoke to Robert Bridenbecker, Vice President, Technology Strategy and Planning at ‎Blizzard, who is spearheading Warcraft 3: Reforged's development and Brian Sousa, Lead Artist for Warcraft 3: Reforged to find out what you can expect when Warcraft 3: Reforged is out in 2019.Īfter StarCraft Remastered, Warcraft 3: Reforged is Blizzard's second effort at updating one of its older games though the approach this time was radically different. While StarCraft - Blizzard's last remaster - was a barebones affair, Warcraft 3: Reforged appears to be a lot more substantial. It promises to bring Warcraft 3 into the modern age with compatibility for newer hardware, sharper visuals, updated gameplay, and an enhanced story. Warcraft 3: Reforged is a remaster of 2002 PC real-time strategy game Warcraft 3.
