Warcraft: Orcs and Humans & Warcraft 2 Battle.net Edition are now available DRM-free.

In anticipation of the upcoming 25th anniversary of Warcraft, we brought you the real-time strategy classics that started it all, Warcraft: Orcs and Humans and Warcraft II Battle.net Edition, including both the original Tides of Darkness and the Beyond the Dark Portal expansion. Starting today, you can once again explore these universe-defining games as they become available digitally and DRM-free for the first time ever!

The first part of the legendary series plays and feels just like the original from 1994, it’s just updated to run flawlessly on modern operating systems. Warcraft II Battle.net Edition, similarly to the release of first Diablo on GOG.COM, comes in two versions, which you can choose from the launcher. The classic one allows for the authentic experience and a fully functional multiplayer with Blizzard’s Battle.net online gaming service. The updated version comes with a number of fixes to provide full compatibility with modern machines as well as hi-resolution support and upscaling.

tfishell: Do you realize that GOG can't always control this? If they, the dev, or the pubisher can't get the rights, they can't get the rights.

Plokite_Wolf: There'll always be the entitled ones who are too lazy to learn English.
probably not really about laziness but nostalgia - they simply might want to experience the game again the way they did before ;)

but it doesn't change the fact that not adding multiple languages isn't GOG's laziness either...

mqstout: Does LAN work in Warcraft 2? It's not listed.
It does. We'll correct the description to reflect that, thanks!

Starcraft/Insurrection/Brood War is coming?

What a time to be alive, instant buy. It was always drudgery for me to re-install War2 on modern systems with all the Dos commands you have to keep in mind to get the thing running. But this should be a thing of the past now :)

Panaias: I wonder if this release thread will get more posts than the Diablo release thread :)
Happy for everyone who loves these games, personally not interested.

@GOG & @Blizzard: Can we give Blackthorne a GOG treatment?
Blackthorne is already available from Blizzard for free

Download it here:

I wish I could use some spells like "summon gold bars" then. But at least I can practice some spells I haven't cast in a really long time! Summon water elemental and Death & Decay, here I come

jalister: I'm buying both of these today. Now let's get Diablo 2 here.
Diablo 2 probably won't happen because you can buy it from Blizzard at https://us.shop.battle.net/en-us/family/diablo-ii

Wow not even a minute after I logged on both games somehow ended up in my libary as if by magic.
