Today Blizzard has announced that in Legacy of the Void, brave commanders will embark on an intergalactic journey to unite the protoss race, take back their homeworld, and vanquish the ancient evil that now threatens to consume all life in the Koprulu sector.
StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void features an expansive new campaign where players will take on the role of Artanis, Hierarch of the Daelaam, and take command of the mighty Spear of Adun—a magnificent protoss arkship capable of altering the course of battle from high above any conflict. As they fight to steer the protoss armada toward their ultimate destiny, players will also determine the ultimate fates of such iconic StarCraft characters as Jim Raynor, Kerrigan, and Zeratul.
Legacy of the Void is packed with new features and enhancements that make it the definitive multiplayer strategy experience, including Archon Mode, brand-new Co-op Missions, automated tournaments, and new multiplayer units for each faction that give commanders a whole new range of tactical possibilities.
“An epic campaign, game-changing multiplayer units, and all-new co-op and competitive modes combine to make Legacy of the Void our best StarCraft game yet,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. “With more gameplay and story updates planned for after launch, and a new era of world-class StarCraft II esports ahead of us, the future of strategy gaming has never been brighter.”
StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void is available now on Battle.net and in stores for a suggested retail price of £29.99. Anyone who purchases Legacy of the Void will also receive Artanis, noble Hierarch of the protoss (and mighty melee Warrior of the Nexus), in Blizzard’s free-to-play team brawler, Heroes of the Storm.
Players also have the option to upgrade their purchase to the Digital Deluxe Edition (£44.99), which unlocks a variety of in-game bonuses for Blizzard games, including an Archon battle pet for World of Warcraft, a Void Speeder mount in Heroes of the Storm, and a protoss-themed card back in Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft.
