The computer games were the origin of the Warcraft universe, and continue to be its primary focus. Much has changed in the lore since Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, with each new release greatly expanding the world and revising some of the past lore.

Warcraft introduced the basic conflict between the orcs and humans, as well as the characters of Medivh, Llane, Garona, and Lothar.

Warcraft II expanded the world beyond the continent of Azeroth to include Khaz Modan and Lordaeron. The dwarves, high elves, trolls, goblins, and Burning Legion were introduced, as well as a host of new characters.

Warcraft III expanded the world yet again by introducing the continents of Kalimdor, Northrend, and Outland along with a mention of the mysterious land of Pandaria, a detailed backstory chronicling the creation of the world of Azeroth, and several new races including the night elves, the tauren, and the Scourge.

World of Warcraft and its expansions have continued this trend by allowing the players to experience nigh all of the colossal world as no more than one of the many little players, as well as introducing a host of new creatures and characters.

• The word Warcraft was originally written WarCraft with a capital C, similarly to StarCraft, during the first few games but later adopted the lowercase 'c' with the release of Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition and Warcraft III. The logos still continue to use WarCraft however.
• The name "Warcraft" was created by Samwise Didier when he shouted it out during a lunchtime brainstorming session prior to the development of Warcraft: Orcs & Humans. He mentioned that he had always wanted to use the name to make a game. It was previously the name of his character and was intended to be the opposite of the word "witchcraft". The other developers all liked the name and decided to use it because of its coolness, rather than it being based on any game design elements. Blizzard co-founder Allen Adham originally wanted to use Warcraft as the name of a whole series of games about different eras of warfare across many different genres—including fantasy, science fiction, modern military, and historic military—all with the title Warcraft and a subheading (e.g. "Warcraft: Vietnam"), with Warcraft: Orcs & Humans being the first. Adham intended this as a strategy to optimize for retail stores: having many related titles next to each other on store shelves would create cross-selling opportunities and show that the brand was well-supported. However, the only two games from this original plan that ended up actually getting made were Warcraft and StarCraft.
