Old description:
> In a surprising announcement made during the currently-ongoing BlizzCon
> event in Anaheim, California, Blizzard announced that it plans to release
> its upcoming RTS sequel StarCraft II as a trilogy of games, each focusing
> on one of the franchise's playable races.
> The first of the three releases will focus on game's Terran faction, and
> will be subtitled Terrans: Wings of Liberty. The second and third, which
> executive VP of game design Rob Pardo likened to expansion packs, will be
> respectively entitled Zerg: Heart of the Swarm and Protoss: Legacy of the
> Void. An overarching storyline will spread across the titles.
> Pardo revealed the strategy during BlizzCon's opening ceremonies,
> according to reports by Shacknews and Joystiq. He explained that using a
> standard development mentality would have resulted either in a necessary
> reduction of content or a prohibitively long development cycle.
> Multiplayer, a crucial component of the original StarCraft (and the basis
> of a national competitive gaming market in Korea), will apparently be
> handled more traditionally.
> Pardo said that while the second and third releases "will be like
> expansion packs," the company doesn't plan to skimp on the content. We
> really want them to feel like standalone products," he said.
> Since 1995's WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness, Blizzard has released one
> expansion pack each for its real-time strategy games.
> Blizzard has yet to reveal a release projection for any of its StarCraft
> II titles.
