StarCraft is reportedly poised for an exciting, genre-bending comeback. According to fresh insider information, a third-person shooter set in Blizzard’s iconic sci-fi universe is highly likely to be revealed during this year’s BlizzCon event.
The news stems from a *Windows Central* report by Jez Corden, who suggests this new *StarCraft* title could be the major announcement headlining Blizzard’s annual convention, typically held in September. While details on the game are thin—we still don’t know if the focus will be strictly multiplayer or include a campaign—the existence of the project has been rumored for some time.
Initial reports of a *StarCraft* shooter surfaced back in 2024, notably mentioned in Jason Schreier’s book detailing the history of Blizzard Entertainment. Adding significant weight to the current anticipation, the game is reportedly being led by industry veteran Dan Hay, known for his work as the former lead on the *Far Cry* franchise. Corden confirmed the game’s existence through his own independent sources, indicating that fans could soon get their first look at this long-awaited expansion of the *StarCraft* universe.
