Guide to Streaming Warcraft 30th Anniversary Direct and Unlocking Exclusive Rewards

The Warcraft franchise marks a significant milestone this year, celebrating its 30th Anniversary. This historic journey began with the launch of Warcraft: Orcs and Humans for MS-DOS in 1994, which laid the groundwork for a vast and beloved entertainment empire.

To commemorate three decades of rich storytelling and epic gameplay, Blizzard Entertainment is hosting Warcraft Direct, an event that not only honors the franchise’s legacy but also offers a glimpse into its future.
