Warcraft 3 Reforged Moves Online-Only as Forsaken Kingdom Debuts; Devs Explain the Switch

TL;DR Summary
Blizzard’s Warcraft 3: Reforged update adds the Forsaken Kingdom campaign and makes the base game online-only by removing LAN play; developers say the change is driven by a broader networking upgrade to support global matchmaking and better connectivity, which requires a connected infrastructure, while a classic offline client remains for the older experience but cannot access the new content.
