Blizzard Says StarCraft 'Won't Be Exclusive' When It Launches in 2030
Blizzard has confirmed its open-world StarCraft shooter "won't be exclusive" to Xbox platforms when it launches in 2030.
Blizzard Entertainment has confirmed that the open-world StarCraft shooter will not be exclusive to Xbox platforms when it launches in 2030. The developer provided this information in response to a query from Kotaku regarding the game's future platforms. While the new game's release window is uncertain, Blizzard has stated that it will not be an Xbox-exclusive title, indicating at least one other platform for the game.
The exact platforms for the game's launch remain unclear, as the console gaming landscape is constantly evolving. Microsoft is developing a family of devices called Project Helix, which could potentially be among the platforms for StarCraft. Sony is also expected to release its PlayStation 6 console, which is likely to be available by the game's 2030 release window.
The lack of specific platform information leaves the future of StarCraft shrouded in speculation, but the developer's commitment to keeping the game from being exclusive provides a glimmer of insight into its future release.
