9 long years after Starcraft’s release, the long awaited sequel has finally been announced. The riot squad held position as the announcement was made in South Korea, in preparation for the blood bath that could of been over the excitement of the next Blizzard release. Here’s the down low on the game

Very intelligently, Starcraft 2 will not be a MMO, as it was rumored it would be, but rather the God controls similar to the original game. The game will feature the three races; Protoss, Terran, and Zerg, in the classic style of balance Blizzard games are known for. Starcraft 2 will feature a single-player campaign mode, along with a redesigned version of Battle.Net for smooth internet play. Screens and press release after the jump. (more…)

Blizzard has tipped sources that an announcement with much more detail regarding Starcraft 2, the sequel to the highly successful original, will be released at the World Wide Invitational, next month in Seoul, South Korea. For now, Blizzard has been keeping pretty mum about anything regarding a new Starcraft, and really, who could blame them.

According to a Korean site, Blizzard is currently developing the Starcraft sequel with 3D graphics. Could there be a surprise World of Starcraft in the future? Oh, how that would make me squirm with anticipation. Playing the first game on Battle.Net was such a ground breaking adventure for everyone when the first game was popular. Now take WoW, and mix in tech and the future, and you have yourself the greatest selling game of all-time. — Andrew Dobrow
