Exclusive Interview with Chris Sigaty, Beta Opt-In

www.Blizzard.com - May 06, 2009

Fansites involved in the FanSite Program including us were given access to an exclusive interview with Chris Sigaty, Lead Producer for StarCraft II and provided some insightful information regarding the upcoming beta! Here is a quick exerpt and two exclusive screenshots.

Q. What aspects of the game will be available for testing in this beta?

A. As with previous betas for our real-time strategy games, the StarCraft II beta test will be multiplayer only, and players will have access to all three races -- terrans, protoss, and zerg -- and all of their units. We'll include a selection of multiplayer maps, but they won't necessarily include all of the maps that will be in the final version of the game. We're making some great progress on the single-player campaign, but we don't plan to do a public beta since we want to keep the story under wraps until the game's out.

Our Beta Center has been updated to reflect these recent changes.
