StarCraft 2 is currently scheduled for a release at the end of this year, Blizzard president Mike Morhaime announced today in an Activision Blizzard pre-E3 conference call.

"We're targeting an end of year release--this year--for StarCraft 2," said Morhaime of the PC strategy title, "But as always, we won't release it until it meets our standards and the expectations of our players."

It's sorta BS that this game is being split into a trilogy of releases. We've known for some time that the initial release of Starcraft 2 will only include the Terran campaign. But while it's a little disheartening, I'm just happy that we're getting that much this soon. Perhaps there's some honest hope for seeing Diablo 3 in 2010!

I'm not really shocked.. but it is a big deal. We've seen quite a bit of this game already, and the beta should start sometime this summer. Megaton.. perhaps not.. but it's still f'n awesome!

Although I really suck as at Star Craft, I do really like it... Looking forward to the first release of the Terran Campaign

I am most interested about the campaign mode. It looked pretty awesome on the early videos. Multiplayer is just way too hard at b.net... I have tried couple times with the original game.. I tried to play, they rushed me, I sucked ass, I didn't try again :P

With friends it's a different experience. Play against AI or others and just relax and have fun. Good stuff.

I'm stoked for this. The first reeked of super high quality. I haven't really been able to play any other RTS's since SC because I find they all fall flat comparatively.

I'm pretty much in the same boat. Playing with a bud or two against a bunch of AI opponents is damn fun. And seriously, rushing has got to be one of the most retarded online practices. As all important as getting that "W" is(sarcasm), where's the fun in it?

I second this thought completely. Sure there are other RTS on the horizon, like SupCom 2 (so not surprised there's no conversation here about it).. but this genre has never really been my thing. I can only enjoy it casually. I liked playing the original Starcraft with my friends, but I was never very good at it. RTS games just don't jive well with my ADD.

The campaign on the other hand.. is going to be fucking great! Complete with a mix of point and click adventure. I will still play no b.net a little.. and I would love a co-op feature.

I third this :P

I never played Starcraft. Seems like a good way to enter the universe playing SC2. Not much interested in MP, more in the SP and knowing Blizzard should be a cool ride.

Still as Isomac said, will certainly play some MP games with people from gamersyde and friends. Noob games :p

Beta Access

How do I sign up for the StarCraft II beta test?

In order to sign up for the StarCraft II beta test or future Blizzard Entertainment beta tests, you first need to create a Battle.net account. You can then opt in to the beta for StarCraft II, as well as betas for future Blizzard Entertainment games, through the beta opt-in process.

If I opted in to the StarCraft II beta, how will I know if I've been selected to participate?

If you are selected, you will receive an email from Blizzard instructing you to log in to your Battle.net account at www.battle.net. You will be able to download the client directly from within Battle.net Account Management.

Because the name of the company is "Blizzard Activision."

RTS's just happen to be a lot more fun to play than watch....unless you're South Korean I suppose.

I dunno if you like the genre, but you should try to get the first one for cheap and give it a play through. For me, that game has some of the most memorable sound design(on top of all the great gameplay and story-telling...blah blah blah...:P)
