Blizzard announces Warcraft Arclight Rumble


In short: Blizzard has revealed as promised details about its next mobile game set in the Warcraft universe. Warcraft Arclight Rumble is an action technology game that tasks players with collecting Warcraft Minis across five playable families: Alliance, Horde, Blackrock, Beast, and Undead. Each Mini has unique abilities, and it will be up to you to mix and match them to build your army for battle.

In addition to the massive single-player campaign with more than 70 missions, players can compete in PvP or co-op matches across multiple game modes including conquest, dungeons, and raids. As you level up, you will be able to unlock new skills and upgrade your Minis. Players are encouraged to replay maps with new sets of Minis to unlock additional rewards.

"Warcraft Arclight Rumble gives the sort of involvement we have consistently strived to make at Blizzard," said Mike Ybarra, leader of Blizzard Entertainment. "It's quickly fun, yet significant and compensating over the long haul, and we are so pleased to bring a new and unique portrayal of Warcraft to versatile. We can hardly trust that players will encounter the elating mayhem of this game for themselves."


There will initially be over 65 Warcraft Minis to collect, although it's reasonable for Blizzard to add additional characters over time. Players can receive in-game currency to add to and upgrade their collections, either via grinding or through purchases from the in-game store. Pricing and inventory for the in-game store will be revealed at a later time, we're told.


Interested parties can pre-register for a chance to be included in future beta tests. Blizzard said the game will arrive later this year on Android and iOS in select regions.
