Warcraft: Chronicles of the Second War

Last wiki revision 2023-05-21

Warcraft: Chronicles of the Second War is a fan-made mod for Warcraft III: Reforged that aims to recreate the experience of playing the original Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness and Beyond the Dark Portal games, overhauled with updated gameplay and lore for a modern audience.

Story will be heavily drawn from established lore in original games, World of Warcraft, Chronicles and other book series. While there are some discrepancies when it comes to certain events and characters, the team will make sure to deliver a clean, straight and presentable series of events. Characters from the original early games will be featured in the campaign. Some will be cameos or appear in cinematics, while many others will be playable, such as: Anduin Lothar, Turalyon, Grom Hellscream and many other legendary characters who participated in the Second War.

  • Gameplay will be greatly improved from the original game, meaning Warcraft III style overhaul, which will include both Tides of Darkness and Beyond the Dark Portal. The campaign will be story-linear driven unlike Warcraft II as well as having cinematics and sidequests.
  • Custom Assets fitting both Warcraft II aesthetic as well as appearances from World of Warcraft will be used for units, heroes and buildings. Meaning each orcish clan, human kingdom as well as other important faction such as dwarves and elves will feature many unique models and skins.
  • Tech trees will be updated from the original game, while a completely new one will be made for the dwarves and high elves.
