“Warcraft 2: Wrath of the Lich King” is a highly anticipated concept among fans of the Warcraft universe, envisioning a cinematic continuation of the 2016 film “Warcraft.” This sequel would delve into the iconic storyline of Arthas Menethil’s transformation into the Lich King, a narrative that has captivated players of the original “Warcraft III” game and the “World of Warcraft” expansion, “Wrath of the Lich King.”
In this envisioned sequel, the plot would follow Prince Arthas Menethil, a noble paladin of Lordaeron, as he embarks on a perilous journey to save his kingdom from the malevolent Scourge. His descent into darkness, driven by a desperate desire to protect his people, leads him to claim the cursed sword Frostmourne, ultimately becoming the dreaded Lich King.
Fans have expressed enthusiasm for this storyline, suggesting a trilogy to fully explore Arthas’s complex character arc. One Reddit user proposed:
“Give us [a] Lich King trilogy: Rise of A King: Arthas’s story with the culling of Stratholme as a shock effect and ending with him killing his father.”
