In 1995, going by the success of the title, a sequel was released, Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness. The sequel was a graphical expansion of the original with a number of improvements implemented.

Blizzard Entertainment has since then developed a massively multiplayer online role-playing game, World of Warcraft (WoW), multi-million selling video game franchises such as Diablo, StarCraft, and Overwatch, alongside several Warcraft sequels. The games are operated via an online gaming service, Battle.net.
