There is rebalancing in the works for Warcraft 3: Reforged, “hundreds of balance changes to heroes, units and buildings” to modernize the game, Blizzard says. And like a good Blizzard game, it’s easy to learn, difficult to master, also make it even deeper.” Blizzard Entertainment

Warcraft 3: Reforged was developed with a different goal in mind than last year’s StarCraft : Remastered, Stillwell said. Stillwell, senior producer on Warcraft 3: Reforged, said that from a technical standpoint, the two versions of the game will live under one client to achieve that compatibility.
