It’s really starting to look like a new StarCraft game will be revealed at BlizzCon

BlizzCon 2026 is scheduled for September 12-13. Nexon is reportedly close to finalizing a deal to create a new game in the StarCraft series, following a long hiatus since StarCraft Remastered in 2017 and the last original installment, StarCraft 2, in 2010. There is skepticism within the StarCraft community regarding whether the new title will be StarCraft 3 or a shooter. The official StarCraft website has shown unusual activity, suggesting an imminent announcement. Additionally, there is an unexplained one-hour gap in the BlizzCon main stage schedule that fans speculate could be for a StarCraft reveal. Blizzard has also been reportedly developing its own StarCraft shooter since 2024. Recent hiring efforts and a major patch for StarCraft 2 have further fueled speculation about the franchise's future.

MindsEye has multiplayer and a grenade football mode now, which the handful of people still playing it will no doubt be thrilled to hear

Build a Rocket Boy is committed to developing its open-world shooter, MindsEye, despite facing challenges such as low sales, recent layoffs, and allegations of surveillance technology being installed on employees' workstations. The latest update, Update 8, introduces a team-based multiplayer mode called "grenade football," where players aim to score by propelling a large ball into the opposing team's net. However, the gameplay appears unpolished, with issues like the oversized ball disappearing during play. The game has seen a peak of only 36 concurrent players in the past 24 hours, raising concerns about player engagement. The update also includes new racing circuits, social features, and improvements to the single-player experience, such as better enemy physics, adjusted mission difficulty, and refined AI behavior. Despite the rocky launch, there is a desire for improvement, but former developers have protested against the studio's practices, and concerns have been raised about the shifting of work from employees to the fanbase during a crisis in the gaming industry.
