You probably wanted Azeroth Survivors
WoW Aethus and AETHUS are different games
If you searched "WoW Aethus", you want Azeroth Survivors: a free browser survivors game in a Warcraft 1.12 style, made by a creator who uses the name Aethus. The original site is wow.aethus.pl. It is not the Steam game AETHUS.
The original wow.aethus.pl page identifies Azeroth Survivors and provides its own distribution entry. Steam identifies the separate mining game by Pawsmonaut Games. The guide at wowsurvivors.com is a fan site, not the developer distribution page.
Which one you want
Azeroth Survivors is described by its own sites as free, Rust-based, playable in a WebGPU browser and on Windows and Linux, with co-op for up to five. It states it is not affiliated with Blizzard and that it does not ship the Warcraft client. Version numbers on those sites change often, so this page does not freeze a build number. The Steam game AETHUS released on 6 March 2026, costs $19.99, and has no co-op.
