We do not know when Starcraft will return, or if in case there is a new installment it will be developed by Blizzard Entertainment. This option has been open when the Korean press has revealed that up to four companies in the country are competing to license the popular and veteran intellectual property that Microsoft belongs today.

According to the information of Asia Today, four companies based in South Korea including NCSoft (Lineage and Guild Wars), Nexon (The First Descendant), Netmarble (only Leveling: Arise, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad) and Krafton (Pubg: Battlegrounds, Inzoi), they are interested in developing a new game set in the universe set in the universe set in the universe set in the universe set in the universe Starcraft and obtain publication rights. Some of these companies would have already traveled to the headquarters of Blizzard in Irvine, California, to present their proposal in person.

South Korea's fervor by Starcraft is not new and goes back to the launch at the beginning of the first game and the Brood War expansion. The country's interest in the saga is so great that even Starcraft II was presented in South Korea.

The four studies that compete for getting Starcraft claim to have a unique proposal, and for now we only have brushstrokes of two of them. NCSOFT would have presented the idea of ​​developing an RPG, while Netmarble wants a mobile game. There are no details about Krafton and Nexon's proposal. Blizzard is not a company accustomed to giving its intellectual property, but even four companies have come to present a proposal means that the door is open. From here we can see a Starcraft game there is a world, because Blizzard is also known for the generous number of projects he has canceled.

On the other hand, it is worth remembering that in September 2024 it transcended through the mouth of the journalist Jason Schreier de Bloomberg that Blizzard was working on a shooter of Starcraft directed by Dan Hay, producer of several deliveries of Starcraft. It is the third time that the company proof of carrying out a shooter of Starcraft after trying for years with Starcraft: Ghost and a project known as Ares that was canceled in 2019.
