What the critics say:
“From a single-player point of view, they’re going to kind of feel like sequels. It’s going to be a pretty meaningful amount of content. There will definitely be additions to multiplayer, but that’s going to feel like an expansion set.”
Rob Pardo, VP Game Design, Blizzard, Destructiod.com
Publisher: Blizzard Entertainment. More than two years after the release of StarCraft 2, the first expansion pack is set to arrive this spring. I’m looking forward to the sci-fi melodrama of the story, but it’s the additions to the multiplayer portion of the game that have gamers most excited with addition of new units to the Protoss, Zerg and Terran armies, as well as tweak to existing units. The result will be a more complex, challenging experience. This game is expected to carry around 20 missions, and will continue the story from Wings of Liberty,taking place two years after the previous game, in 2506.
