Starcraft II Preview - PC

Lots and lots of people are going to be very excited about this. This month, we bring you news of Blizzard's long-awaited Starcraft II, which we can reveal will be out on the PC in 2008. Sci-fi RTS Starcraft first blazed onto the PC in 1998, and was later complemented by the expansion pack Brood War. Always a great multi-player game, Starcraft II should develop this further into online gaming, coming as it does from the makers of the mighty MMO World of Warcraft. We've got two pages of exclusive news, screen shots and in-game video - check out our Starcraft II preview now.

Starcraft II Exclusive Preview - PC
While much of their time has been spent feeding the World of Warcraft monster over recent years, there’s clearly been an sci-fi ache nagging the wizardly beards at Blizzard.
It was with barely contained glee and a glint that said ‘we’re relishing every damn minute of this’ that they announced Starcraft II and vowed to settle some unfinished business… Since 1998, Starcraft and it’s generous expansion pack, Brood War, have been carving up friendships as millions of armchair generals waged war in a game tilted unashamedly towards multiplayer action.

For those who don’t know, Starcraft is a far grittier, spacier RTS than it’s stablemate Warcraft. Here it’s your command of hundreds of twitching units that is likely to turn the tide of battle, not the lumbering destruction of super-powerful hero units. It’s a game characterised by the perfect balance of three warring factions – the Protoss, Zerg and Terran, all of whom return once more for this souped-up sequel.
