In May 2020, Blizzard promised in a blog post that they would be working on a roadmap to fix the game’s issues. Finally, just a few months later, the team stopped releasing updates. Now Blizzard boss Mike Ybarra has stated via Twitter that there will be new information next month. When asked by a Twitter follower if there was “any news from the Warcraft 3: Reforged team,” Ybarra simply replied, “You’ll be hearing from them soon (in June).”

While the final remaster featured revised character models and environments, it did not include the revised cutscenes shown at the original announcement. In addition, some visual improvements such as shaders and lighting effects were missing. In addition, the new edition also lacked many social features of the 2002 original: There was no support for clans and rankings, although it was integrated with the Battle.net platform.

The negative reactions from players eventually led Blizzard to remove restrictions on the game’s refunds, allowing players to request them if they weren’t happy with the release. The last patch for the game was released in April 2021. However, many of the promised features were still not delivered.
