Blizzard has just announced that their 3D strategy game Warcraft 3 has gone gold. The game will be available around the world July 3, at a price of around $55. Thanks badman.

... In the single-player game, players follow the adventures of Legendary Heroes, who grow more formidable with experience. As the game progresses, these Heroes are able to learn spells and special abilities and acquire powerful magic items.
Heroes advance even faster in multiplayer games, adding to the intensity of strategic combat between rival powers. Expanded multiplayer options include the ability to share units and resources with allies and to compete anonymously against other players of similar skill levels.
Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos also includes the most powerful and full-featured World Editor ever released for a Blizzard game. The World Editor puts the same tools used by Blizzard's designers into the hands of players, enabling them to create 3D maps and unique missions, with scripts for units, spells, and action-packed events.
Players will also be able to produce their own in-game cinematics, using flexible camera controls and incorporating .mp3-based sound files.
