Warcraft III: Reforged's Forsaken Kingdom Campaign Has Two Secret Levels Still Waiting to Be Found

Warcraft III: Reforged players have a new mystery to solve. The recently released Forsaken Kingdom campaign reportedly contains not one but two hidden bonus levels, and, nearly two days after the campaign arrived, neither had been publicly discovered or completed.

The challenge comes directly from Brad Chan, a senior manager on the Warcraft team who works on Warcraft III: Reforged. At the close of a recent interview, Chan revealed that the development team had placed two secret levels somewhere within the new campaign. He offered no hints about their location, their requirements, or what players will encounter once they get inside.

"We have put two secret bonus levels in that campaign," Chan said. "You're gonna have to do a few things to unlock them."

That is the key detail for anyone setting out to solve the puzzle: simply progressing through the campaign may not be enough. The wording suggests there are specific conditions, actions, or combinations of actions needed before either bonus stage becomes accessible. What those steps involve remains unknown.

Forsaken Kingdom launched the previous day at the end of BlizzCon's opening ceremonies, immediately giving returning strategy fans and curious campaign players a fresh reason to revisit Warcraft III: Reforged. Now its most elusive content has become an unofficial community-wide scavenger hunt.

Two secrets, no clues

Chan was deliberately guarded on every meaningful detail. He did not say whether the two levels are connected, whether they can be unlocked in any order, whether both are hidden in the same chapter, or whether players need to meet conditions across multiple missions. There is also no confirmation on whether the unlock process relies on difficult gameplay, exploration, optional objectives, item interactions, branching decisions, or an entirely different kind of secret.

That lack of direction is likely to make the search more interesting for the players who enjoy Warcraft's campaign design as much as its real-time strategy battles. Hidden content has a different appeal from a standard mission list. Rather than presenting another map with a clear objective marker, a secret level turns attention toward the details players might usually ignore: environmental oddities, unusual objects, optional routes, dialogue triggers, mission completion methods, and the possibility that a seemingly insignificant action may have a wider effect.

At the same time, players should not assume any particular method will work. Chan has only confirmed that there are "a few things" to do. Everything beyond that--including speculation around exact triggers--remains unverified until someone documents a successful unlock.

A direct challenge to completionists

Chan said the team had not seen anybody post that they had located the levels in the roughly two days since the campaign's release. More than just a note about the secrets' status, that comment turns the discovery into a race. The first player or group to uncover both stages will not only solve a newly planted Warcraft mystery, but will also establish the route others can follow.

"I would challenge people to play--I really want to see someone say they finished everything first," Chan said. "I'm looking for it. I'm throwing the gauntlet out."

It is a notably old-school invitation. Secrets in games often become known through guides, patches, data mining, social media clips, or a developer explanation soon after launch. Here, the team appears to be waiting for the player community to do the work first. Chan's remarks make clear that he is actively watching for someone to claim the accomplishment.

For dedicated players, that creates a different target than simply reaching the campaign's ending. The goal is now to establish what "everything" means in Forsaken Kingdom: finish the standard campaign, identify both concealed stages, determine their unlock requirements, and complete them. Until that happens publicly, the campaign's true scope remains partially hidden.

What could the bonus levels contain?

Chan did not reveal the contents or tone of either secret level, leaving plenty of room for speculation. They could be comedic diversions, difficult combat scenarios, lore-focused side stories, or something that does not fit neatly into the campaign's usual structure. There is currently no evidence pointing toward any one possibility.

The question naturally raises memories of gaming's most famous hidden areas. Secret stages can be playful easter eggs designed to surprise veteran fans, but they can also be places for developers to add story fragments, unusual mechanics, or challenges that would feel out of place in the main path. Warcraft has a long history as a fantasy series with room for both serious world-building and lighter touches, which makes guessing the nature of these additions particularly tempting.

Still, the safest conclusion is the simplest one: there are two bonus levels in Forsaken Kingdom, their means of access require unspecified player actions, and their actual content has not yet been publicly confirmed. Any claim beyond those points needs proof from a successful discovery.

How players may approach the hunt

Without developer-provided instructions, the most methodical approach is likely to be a careful replay of the campaign rather than a rush through its mandatory objectives. Completionists may want to compare different mission outcomes, inspect areas beyond the direct route, and pay closer attention to encounters or interactive elements that appear unusual. Repeating missions while changing one variable at a time can also help distinguish a genuine trigger from coincidence.

A coordinated search may be especially useful. One player can focus on exhaustive exploration, while another tests alternate approaches to mission objectives. Others may compare progression states, record the actions taken before and after each chapter, and look for changes that could signal an unlock condition. Because Chan stated that players need to do multiple things, documentation could matter as much as persistence.

• Finish campaign missions with attention to optional paths and unusual interactions.
• Revisit chapters rather than assuming every secret can be reached on a first run.
• Test alternate ways of handling objectives where the campaign permits them.
• Keep track of actions and mission order so potential requirements can be reproduced.
• Be cautious with rumors until somebody can show both how a level unlocks and how it is completed.

None of those steps are confirmed solutions. They are simply reasonable ways to investigate a campaign whose developers have explicitly said it contains hidden content. The answer could prove straightforward once found, or it could require players to connect details spread throughout the experience.

Forsaken Kingdom now has a mystery at its center

The launch of a new campaign is ordinarily enough to bring players back to a real-time strategy game: there are new missions to learn, fresh tactical problems to solve, and another chapter to see through. The revelation of two unseen bonus levels adds another layer. Players are not only working through content; they are being asked to question whether they have truly seen all of it.

That uncertainty is currently the most important part of the story. Chan has not framed the levels as a future addition, a rumor, or a possibility. He has said they are already in the campaign. Their secrets are active now, waiting for someone to meet the necessary conditions.

For the moment, the Warcraft team is holding the answers close. The developers know what is hidden in Forsaken Kingdom, but players have been given only a challenge and a deadline-free invitation to investigate. Whether the two stages turn out to be humorous surprises, meaningful lore discoveries, punishing tactical tests, or something else entirely, the first verified completion will finally reveal what the campaign has been concealing.

Until then, Warcraft III: Reforged has two undiscovered levels--and a gauntlet thrown squarely at its most determined players.
