Read Blizzard’s announcement ↗Dan Hay described a character-led narrative with a beginning, middle, and end. He said the timeline is 70 years after the prior story, allowing factions and relationships to change. These are attributed statements about the current vision.
Read Inven Global’s interview ↗Blizzard has not named the protagonist, plot, missions, planets, player character’s faction, or returning cast. Dan Hay’s 70-year timeline comment comes from an interview, not Blizzard’s announcement.
The public title remains STARCRAFT. Calling it STARCRAFT 3 or STARCRAFT Dominion would invent a subtitle Blizzard did not announce.
Legacy characters and events can help explain the setting, but their appearance in this new game is not assumed.
