Blizzard Entertainment's upcoming mobile title, Warcraft Arclight Rumble with WOW WoTLK Classic Gold , is already regarded as to be a Clash of Clans knockoff in certain circles. The possibility of a mobile Warcraft game have been circulating earlier this year, in light of a report by journalist Jason Schreier that claimed such game would be launched in 2022. Blizzard has since confirmed plans to announce concrete details about the mobile project in May.

But this does not represent Blizzard Entertainment's first foray into the mobile market. This year, for instance the publisher and developer hit pay dirt upon rolling out a free-to play collectible card game Hearthstone which made available the world of Warcraft on PC, Mac, Android and iOS platforms. Also, Diablo Immortal serves as the future major release of the company, as the free-to play action RPG will land on mobile devices as well as PC the month of June.

On May 3. Blizzard showcased a first look at its brand-new games for the mobile platform, Warcraft Arclight Rumble, an action-packed strategy game set in the vast World of Warcraft universe. While Android users can pre-register for it on the official Warcraft Arclight Rumble website, information about the game's release are still under lock and key. Viewers have taken notice of something however, and this new Warcraft experience appears to have some similarities to Clash Royale and Clash of Clans. YouTube comments on the gameplay trailer draw comparisons with the Supercell-developed games, for instance. And Reddit user Saerjin started a thread asking if anyone else had noticed how the Clash of Clans influence. There were a number of replies that compared Warcraft Arclight Rumble to Clash Royale, specifically.
Blizzard forgot about the Sword

The final chapter of the Legion expansion resulted in Sargeras the titan with a sinister past that slayed Azeroth with a giant sword. Literally. It's been two updates and not much has been mentioned. In the film, Alexstrasza talks about the 'healing' of Azeroth that's why some have believed that it could be a way of repairing the damages caused by the sword.

Redditor TomBromeo makes hilarious memes to illustrate the absurdity of the system. TomBromeo jokes that Blizzard is trying to ignore the sword rather than confronting it. The meme shows John Travolta from Pulp Fiction turning away from the sword, as if it's gone.

A glance into the film and it's clear that some have described Arclight Rumble as Clash Royale with Warcraft characters in the mix. The question now is how exactly Blizzard Entertainment will create its own path as well as incorporating elements from the Clash of Clans playbook. If the studio does intend to release its new World of Warcraft experience this year, players will not need to wait much for details about game play.

This announcement comes on the occasion of Blizzard officially announcing Dragonflight, the Dragonflight expansion of World of Warcraft directly. The eagerly-anticipated content currently lacks an exact release date with buy WoTLK Gold , but PC players can expect an updated user interface, redesigned mechanics, dragonriding, a brand-new Evoker class and the playable dragon/humanoid hybrid race called Dracthyr. The game is bound to be a hit. Warcraft will be busy in the year ahead.
