It’s a sequel to the original, still-played StarCraft, which launched back in 1998. The real-time strategy game first launched in 2010 for Windows and Mac. Heart of the Swarm, Legacy of the Void and Nova Covert Ops will cost $14.99 each. Other single-player campaigns will remain available for individual purchase.
(Kerrigan, Raynor and Artanis will remain free indefinitely, however.) All co-op commanders, also announced today at BlizzCon, will be playable for free as well, albeit only up to level five. If you already own that content, you will receive Heart of the Swarm at no additional cost.Īlso included for free is the ranked multiplayer ladder, which players will unlock after achieving 10 First Wins of the Day in either unranked or versus modes. 14, players will be able to play the entire Wings of Liberty campaign at no cost. Company CEO Mike Morhaime announced the news during BlizzCon 2017’s opening ceremony, which streamed live from Anaheim, California today. StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty, one of Blizzard Entertainment’s most popular games, is becoming a free-to-play game.
