Warcraft 3 Curse Of The Forsaken Apr 2026

Note: While no official Blizzard expansion or campaign bears this exact title, "Curse of the Forsaken" is a widely used fan-concept name and a thematic summary of the post-RoC and post-TFT storyline focusing on Sylvanas Windrunner and the birth of the Forsaken.

The fan-dubbed "Curse of the Forsaken" — whether referring to custom campaigns or the canonical post- The Frozen Throne lore — is the haunting tale of how the undead broke their shackles and claimed Lordaeron as their own. The Curse Defined: Freedom Through Damnation After the Battle of Mount Hyjal, the Burning Legion was defeated. However, the Scourge remained scattered across the Eastern Kingdoms.

Among them was the former ranger-general of Silvermoon: Sylvanas Windrunner .
