Starcraft: Remastered Version

Games just never really seem to die, and Blizzard’s Starcraft doesn’t seem to be an exception to that rule. I say that because Blizzard has formally announced an HD version of an old favorite of many gamers: Starcraft.

To those of you who played the original, StarCraft Remastered isn’t missing a thing, as it comes with all the original content in addition to the Brood War expansion pack. Check out the trailer below to get a glimpse at the returning game.

As you can see, the graphics to the game have gotten an upgrade. The game is now suppose to boast a “4k ultra high definition” with improved audio to boot. On top of that, features such as matchmaking – which weren’t in the previous rendition – have been brought in to improve gameplay.

The remastering of this game seems to be a forgone conclusion in the eyes of Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime, who speaks on StarCrafts twenty year history so far. To him, the game has been in the hearts of gamers this long and with this facelift Blizzard is merely “…modernizing the original game’s visuals, audio, and online support to ensure that players can enjoy StarCraft for another 20 years and beyond.”

Specifics on what the remastering of the game will entail can be found here on StarCrafts main page. Yet I’m sure many people will fail to even go and read that. The lure of a revamped StarCraft game and lobbies jam packed full of gamers will draw people in for miles.

The game is slated for release on both the PC and Mac sometime this summer, let us know in the comments on whether or not you’re pumped to play this old classic again.
