Five years have come and gone since StarCraft II: Hearts of Liberty first graced our computers, and now Blizzard is celebrating with a series of little things like a fancy unique portrait if you login between July 27th and August 3rd.
It’s bad news for the backbone of any StarCraft army though as worker units are liable to explode into puffs of confetti. A new wallpaper is being released too in the Media section. Five years and the game still isn’t done yet.
”We’re extremely happy to celebrate the fifth anniversary of StarCraft II! On July 27, 2010, StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty was released to the public, and the five years since have been an incredible journey. We’ve seen tournaments spring up across the globe, millions of players get involved with the game, and are rapidly approaching the release of the final expansion: Legacy of the Void,” read the blog on Battle.net.
After all we’re still missing the crucial third chapter Legacy of the Void before the StarCraft II experience is technically complete beginning to end. The Protoss remain the last faction to get their side of events played out in a cinematic-style campaign.
The Terrans and the Zerg have hogged the spotlight for too long. StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void releases on PC either late this year or early next.
