Highly anticipated sequel to Blizzard Entertainment’s sci-fi real-time strategy game launches around the world
Following several years of development and an extensive beta test that resulted
in focused feedback from thousands of players worldwide, Blizzard Entertainment is pleased to announce that StarCraft® II: Wings of Liberty™
is now on sale in North America, Europe, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Singapore,
Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, and the regions of Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau.
To celebrate the launch with players, Blizzard Entertainment hosted retail launch parties in 12 cities around the world.
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is the sequel to Blizzard Entertainment’s 1998 hit StarCraft,
which has been hailed by players and critics worldwide as one of the top real-time strategy games of all time.
Sporting a vibrant 3D-graphics engine, StarCraft II once again centers on the clash between the protoss, terrans,
and zerg, with each side deploying legions of veteran, upgraded, and new unit types.
Unparalleled online play for StarCraft II is available through a new version of Battle.net®,
Blizzard Entertainment's world-renowned gaming service. Battle.net has been redesigned from the ground up to be the premier
online gaming destination for Blizzard gamers, with several enhancements and new features, such as voice communication, cloud file storage,
leagues and ladders, achievements, stat-tracking, and more.
“We've worked hard to deliver an epic continuation of the StarCraft story line as well as the ultimate competitive real-time
strategy game with StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment.
“Combined with the next-generation online environment of the new Battle.net, we believe players will agree that StarCraft II offers
an experience unlike anything we've ever created, and we're excited to finally be able to share it with them.”
The solo campaign for StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty picks up the saga where it left off in StarCraft: Brood War®.
The story line chronicles the exploits of marshal-turned-rebel-leader Jim Raynor and features both familiar faces and new heroes.
Players can tailor the experience, choosing their own mission path and selecting technology and research upgrades to suit their
playing style throughout the 29-mission campaign. Several challenge missions are also included, with focused goals designed to ease players into the basics of multiplayer strategies.
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is available on DVD-ROM for Windows® XP / Windows Vista® / Windows® 7 and Macintosh®.
The standard edition sells for a suggested retail price of $59.99 and will also be available as of 10 a.m.
PDT today as a digital purchase at www.starcraft2.com. The special Collector’s Edition package, available only at retail
