StarCraft

An announcement for an announcement of a release date?

The balmy Québec weather hardly kept back crowds at this year's Otakuthon -- and in fact, many of the various Sailor Scouts, ninjas, Hydralisks, and other heroes and villains that attendees chose to portray.

It's been twelve years since a new installment of the Warcraft series from the top-down RTS perspective.  Not surprising, of course -- it's long been the accepted and stated wisdom that World of Warcraft provides pretty much all of the Warcraft the company wants.  But it turns out that Blizzard isn't quite so dead set on closing that door after all, as Starcraft 2 producer Tim Morten outright stated at Gamescom that the team will be sitting down and discussing the possibility of a Warcraft RTS following the release of Legacy of the Void.

So if you're playing Heroes of the Storm, here's a nice surprise for you -- we have a new hero for the player who likes a ranged support playstyle, the Medic from Starcraft 2.

Coming in StarCraft 2's upcoming Legacy of the Void expansion is the all-new Allied Commanders cooperative mode which allows you to play as Raynor, Kerrigan, or Artanis, working together to accomplish goals that would be impossible alone.

If you've been itching to get your hands on some new StarCraft missions, your wait is over -- kind of.

Did you know that hidden within the StarCraft 2 Starter Edition, there exists a free version of StarCraft 2?

If, like me, you often find yourself overjoyed at life's simple pleasures, then you'll probably also find yourself in awe of this beautiful fan-made StarCraft LEGO sets.

World record it may be, but I'm satisfied with calling it pretty cool: Twitch streamer Thorlar has recreated an iconic image of Kerrigan, StarCraft's Queen of Blades, in Minecraft pixel art.

With the Diablo-themed Eternal Conflict content rolling out currently for Heroes of the Storm, players are getting all sorts of new heroes, skins, maps, and more from the world of Sanctuary for the next few months.
