StarCraft 3 growth might have been inevitable
StarCraft is a long-time sequence for Blizzard and hasn’t had any new titles for the reason that launch of StarCraft 2 again in 2010. Though it did launch expansions for the sport within the years that adopted.
Blizzard hasn’t talked about StarCraft for fairly a while both. Which led folks to consider the studio might have put the franchise to relaxation. However that appears unlikely given how fashionable the primary two video games had been. Particularly the primary one with it taking part in a central function within the up and coming esports scene.
Additionally price noting is that Blizzard has by no means publicly acknowledged that it was carried out with StarCraft. And any omissions concerning the recreation should not a affirmation that growth would by no means occur on new titles within the franchise. Blizzard does even have its palms full with different initiatives. Continued growth on Overwatch with the discharge of Overwatch 2. The latest launch of Diablo IV. And who may overlook the launch of Dragonflight. Blizzard’s newest growth for World of Warcraft.
The studio can also be engaged on an unannounced survival journey recreation. So it undoubtedly has rather a lot on its plate. That being stated, Blizzard is an enormous firm with rather a lot staff unfold throughout completely different groups. And with its different three largest franchises now having had latest releases, a brand new StarCraft would make sense.
