Blizzard announced Warcraft III Invitational – major update planned
Now Blizzard has officially confirmed that on February 27th and 28th the company will be hosting a Warcraft III Invitational, which will be streamed on Twitch with a variety of special events, competition matches and more. Blizzard has also revealed that a new patch is coming for Warcraft III, which will offer several feature upgrades like 16:9 support, a 24 player limit, an improved map pool, world editor updates and several balance changes. Not bad for a game that is over 15 years old.Â
Right now these changes are available in an early PTR (Player Test Realm) patch, which is available to download here for both Windows and Mac PCs.Â
This live event will be streamed on Twitch and hosted by Neo and Remo of Back2Warcraft. Below is a list of known attendees of this exclusive event.Â
