Warcraft III, a PC (and Mac!) game released almost eight years ago, just got a couple of new, official patches. Now that’s some post-release support.
They’re obviously minor patches, but hey, support is support, no matter how minor or, in this case, how long it comes after the game’s release. There are two available, one for the main game and one for the expansion, Frozen Throne. You can grab both from Blizzard’s support page.
Sounds remarkable, but it’s par for the course with developers Blizzard, who also support other long-in-the-tooth games like Diablo and Starcraft with 21st century updates.
