Although Blizzard once created the possibility StarCraft III Seems to remain distant at bestThe company reportedly still maintains a dream StarCraft Despite multiple previous shooting attempts, the gunman remained alive. However this time, Far Cry 5 Director Dan Hay appears to be at the helm of this film.
This is based on a most recent IGN interview and Burundi journalists and ex my city edit Jason Schreierabout him upcoming books About the history and future of Blizzard. title Well Played: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainmentwhich mentions a recent project aimed at creating a shooter in the sci-fi universe of the famous RTS.
“They are working on a StarCraft shooter, StarCraft Blizzard is not dead,” Schreier said in the interview. It could come out or it could be canceled, he added. “This feels like an interesting and useful nugget, because it really tells you that Blizzard can’t quit StarCraft Shooter,” he said.
Blizzard has tried to make this a reality before StarCraft: Ghosta third-person shooter about human psychic espionage agents, set in StarCraft: Brood War. It was announced in 2002 but delayed indefinitely after the arrival of the Xbox 360 and PS3 generations, and was eventually officially canceled a decade after it was originally teased.
Then there’s another project, codenamed “God of War.” According to Schreier Report my city 2019it should be a first-person shooter, such as “battlefield exist StarCraft Universe,” but it was eventually mothballed so Blizzard could focus on getting Diablo 4 and Battlefield Special Attack 2 Out the door, it took another three or four years.

Hay is the head of the organization far cry Was responsible for Blizzard’s survival production game projects before leaving Ubisoft and joining Blizzard in 2022 Odyssey Before that, it was also canceled earlier this year Microsoft’s brutal round of layoffs. Perhaps Hay’s leadership, coupled with Blizzard now being part of Xbox, will help with this latest incarnation StarCraft Sagittarius succeeds where others fail.
It’s easy to imagine it generating as much interest as Saber Interactive’s recent games. Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. Maybe if it works as well as that game we’ll finally be closer to the real goal StarCraft 3.
