Blizzard is developing another Star Craft shooter, but it is not certain whether it will be released

Since the last expansion for StarCraft II in 2016 and the release of StarCraft: Remastered in 2017, there has been no new content for Blizzard's legendary StarCraft series. However, according to renowned journalist and author Jason Schreier, this could soon change. During an interview on the Unlocked podcast, Schreier announced that Blizzard is once again working on a StarCraft shooter - but this time under the direction of Dan Hay, a former Far Cry executive director with a lot of experience in shooter development.

Fans are very skeptical as to whether the game will ever be released. Blizzard has already started two StarCraft shooter projects in the past, but never completed them. The best-known example is StarCraft: Ghost, a third-person shooter that was announced in 2002. Despite great expectations, several transfers of the project to different studios and a whopping twelve years of development, it was officially discontinued in 2014. Another project with the codename Ares, which was to produce a first-person shooter similar to Battlefield, was also canceled in 2019.

Although the source of Schreier's information remains unclear, it has reignited hopes for a StarCraft shooter. Whether such a game will ever be released remains to be seen. On Reddit, there are already heated discussions about the possible gameplay. Speculation ranges from Left 4 Dead-like scenarios with Zerg enemies to Planetside-inspired real-time battles.

By the way: On October 8, Jason Schreier's latest book "Play Nice: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment" will be published. The hardback version of the book can be pre-ordered on Amazon for around $27.
