The story of the Starcraft Universe has been ongoing since the original game was released back in 1998. Now though, after nearly two decades of expanding the universe, the next batch of content, Legacy of the Void, will conclude the epic story.
This will be the third and final expansion for Starcraft 2. While there may be a Starcraft 3 one day, this will be the last big single player content pack for this iteration of the sci-fi universe.
"StarCraft will live on as a universe. We hope to explore some other aspects of the universe, but the storyline that was set-up in StarCraft I and continued in StarCraft II will resolve in Legacy of the Void," a Blizzard representative told IGN.
"All of those main characters will reach a nice satisfying conclusion."
On top of the story conclusion however, the expansion will also add new content to the game in the form of a new Protoss unit, the Adept, which can send out duplicates of itself and then teleport to that duplicate.
There will also be a number of new maps to battle over, including an old temple on the Protoss Homeworld called Ruins of Seras and a Dark Templar planet known as Lerilak Crest. The final new map is known as the Orbital Shipyard, a Terran starship repair platform.
Closed beta for the expansion will begin on March 31, with a release taking place sometime later this year.
