Microsoft and NetEase to re-launch Warcraft game in China, ending feud

Chinese video games giant NetEase said it is working with Microsoft to bring popular games including "World of Warcraft" back to the country after a public fallout that ended a decade-long partnership in 2023. The two companies said in press release on Wednesday that they are working to bring games developed by Blizzard Entertainment, a subsidiary of U.S. gaming giant Activision Blizzard which Microsoft acquired last year, back to the world's second-largest economy, starting this summer. NetEase was the publisher of Blizzard's games in China from 2008 to 2023.
