This ominous sounding thread is actually to notify people of the latest addition to StarCraft II currently available on the PTR. Yes this is the right section for you see Blizzard is adding not just all 16 melee heroes from Warcraft III The Frozen Throne, but also everything else.
The best part? Remember that StarCraft II Arcade is completely free. This makes it even cheaper to play fantastic custom maps than WarCraft III which still requires a licence purchase (for how long is another question).
So what do you hardened Warcraft III developers think? Tempted to move over to StarCraft II? Or is classic Warcraft III just too good to beat?
StarCraft II is now going to be both StarCraft II and Warcraft III as far as assets goes. Sure the assets might look a bit dated next to their more recent space traveling friends however the possibilities this will open up will be staggering.
We’re excited to announce the models and assets that made Warcraft III an amazing universe to explore are now available in the StarCraft II PTR.
This brings over three thousand new materials for the amazing Arcade development community to work with, including new hero models for the 4 primary races, all of the original Warcraft III models including neutral creatures and their sounds as well as doodads, structures, spell effects, ambient sounds, music and custom user interfaces for each race.
