StarCraft II: The Trilogy

Comments (8)Posted by Spartan[nK] on Oct 10, '08 in News

Blizzard shocked everyone today when they announced that StarCraft II will be a set of 3 different boxes, each sold separately and at different times. Each box will contain one chapter of the singleplayer campaign and each episode will have it's own main hero, which will most likely be the expected stars: Kerrigan, Raynor, and Zeratul. The titles for each box are as follows..

Zerg: Heart of the Swarm
Terran: Wings of Liberty
Protoss: Legacy of the Void

There is no word on pricing or the release schedule yet, but this way they can release the game without having to wait for all the singleplayer content, which will be massive according to Blizzard. Each singleplayer chapter is noted to have over 24 hours of gameplay and around 8 hours of cinematics, and have it's own separate ending (no cliffhangers, folks).

All multiplayer content will be included in the first released box, and the next two chapters will be sold as expansion packs to the first box.

Wish you were here? Of course you do, but lucky for you I'll be attending and will doing my best amateurism in pictures, videos, and taking the whole event experience in all for you guys. Oh yeah.. and playing StarCraft II. :) Yeah, we're a SC2 site first, but I'll make sure to get what I can on Diablo III and WoW for you out there that follow those also.

For those of you that don't know yet - wtf - BlizzCon is Blizzard's convention that they play host to every 1-2 years, depending on their laziness. :P BlizzCon is the place where all fans of any of Blizzard's franchises can gather, commune, and enjoy the geeky atmosphere in unison. Me, my girlfriend, and some other people will be attending the event as a group. I won't be doing live updates since I'm too lazy myself to have thought about that beforehand, but I'll update you all on the happenings later tonight when I get back.
