Starcraft 2 coming soon?
Recently, I've read rumours on the Internet that Blizzard may be working on Starcraft 2, the sequel to the best real-time strategy game ever in the world. Whether this is true, no one sures for sure, but in case you missed it, Blizzard Entertainment is employing a new strategy on informing the public about its up and coming project. Its main page, Blizzard.com, showcases a timeline of its past video game titles with the last entry being a curiously glowing question mark.
Well, the page got updated again and what do you know, it now headlines the original StarCraft and Sarah Kerrigan's infamous lines, "I am the Queen of Blades. And my stare alone would reduce you to ashes." After denying it for so long, it was confirmed a couple of weeks ago that Blizzard is indeed making a new SC game.
However, it is still uncertain if StarCraft 2 will remain true to its roots and be a RTS title. There were some rumors a while back that Blizzard is planning to make it a MMO, much like what it did to the Warcraft franchise. All speculations will be ended soon as a formal announcement will be conducted at the Blizzard World Invitational two days from now in Korea.
Ask me how I know... well, I've been following the SC professional tournaments in Korea on the Internet.
Who knows? It was rumoured that by the end of the year, we may have the new SC 2 as Christmas pressies!
