Warcraft's popularity continues to soar, as the fantasy video game now has its own beer, released by Chinese brewery Tsingtao in special edition cans.
The film, which raked in $45 million on its first day in China, now has World of Warcraft themed beer products, with boxes and cans featuring two of the blockbuster's characters - Durotan and Andoin Luthar.

Collectors Society user Revat spotted and took photos of the drinks on a trip to China.
Inside these decorative cans is the 1903 Tsingtao Lager brew, Chinese blog The Beijinger revealed.
According to Twinfinite, despite its limited production, third parties are selling the beer on Ebay for as low as $20.
Other than the specially made Warcraft cans and boxes, the beer has really nothing more to offer, so interested die-hard fans better grab some while it lasts.
Meanwhile, Game Spot noted that although Tsingtao is available in North America, it is unlikely for these cans to arrive in an officially capacity, since the film itself bombed in the country. In fact, Warcraft: The Beginning director Duncan Jones told haters to "chill out" since this is "just a movie." The statement was also supported by Blizzard Entertainment CEO Mike Morhaime.
Warcraft is not the first video game franchise to have its own beer. Last year, Fallout 4 got a pilsner lager with a "hoppy taste and floral aroma," Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 had Black Hops Midnight Pale Ale, and Mortal Kombat X has a series of beer that includes an IPA, a stout, and a saison.
