Warcraft is going mobile with Warcraft Arclight Rumble, Blizzard Entertainment announced Tuesday. The game, a free-to-play mobile action strategy game built for Android and iOS devices, will be released later this year.

In Warcraft Arclight Rumble, players will battle with “collectible Warcraft Minis,” according to the game’s Google Play Store description. The Warcraft mobile game will feature a “massive single-player campaign” and head-to-head PvP battles, Blizzard says in the game’s description.
