Maps, not the browser game

Warcraft 3 survivors maps

Sources checked: 2026-10-28 · Hive pages rechecked 2026-10-28. Exact map versions, counts, dates and sizes are Hive-only snapshots. Tower Survivors v1.92.

Three different objects

The 2023 Hive map is 10-player co-op, 27.38 MB, patch 1.36, 495 downloads when checked, created 26 July 2023. Tower Survivors is an 8-player roguelike tower defense, version 1.92, 90 weapons, 14,111 downloads, updated 17 October 2026. The Forsaken Kingdom challenge is not a custom map you download from Hive. It is a secret fight inside the official campaign.

None of these run at wow.aethus.pl. Azeroth Survivors is a browser game that happens to use a vanilla client engine. Linking the two in one download button is the mistake this page exists to stop.

What I checked

I opened both Hive threads and the Blizzard news post before writing the three cards. The download counts are Hive’s numbers on 27 October 2026, not estimates.
