New Warcraft III hero art

Blizzard Entertainment has released a new image from its upcoming real-time strategy game, Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. The new concept image depicts the keeper of the grove, a hero unit that will be part of the Night Elf faction. The keepers are centaur-like creatures that are half-man, half-stag. They have large antlers, and they have a number of powers related to nature.

Warcraft III is the latest game in Blizzard's long-running Warcraft real-time strategy series. It will feature a detailed 3D fantasy world, four playable factions with different heroes, units, and abilities, and a variety of neutral monsters. Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos is scheduled for release at the end of 2001. For more information, take a look at our extensive collection of screenshots, movies, and in-depth previews of the game.
