New StarCraft title to launch in 2030, will be an open-world FPS
Blizzard Entertainment announced at BlizzCon 2026 that the next StarCraft title will be an open-world first-person shooter, scheduled for release in 2030. This marks a significant departure from the franchise's real-time strategy roots. The game will feature a standalone story with a definitive ending, and Blizzard also revealed Diablo 5 for Spring 2029 and World of Warcraft: Forever.
