StarCraft 2 Expansion Packs not meant to “gouge people”
As real-time strategy fans might know, StarCraft 2 was split into three campaigns. So how will Blizzard charge and generally handle these? As expansion packs apparently.
In a recent interview with StarCraft 2 producer Chris Sigaty, he clarifies that after the first release of “Terran: Wings of Liberty” as a full campaign, the two other packs “Zerg: Heart of the Swarm” and “Protoss: Legacy of the Void” will be handled as traditional Blizzard expansion packs with enhancements to the multiplayer game.
But what about the pricing? He says: “We effectively look at it internally as expansions. So we’ll see what that means for the price — we’re not just going to raise it and call it that for the purposes of that. We would need to offer the same content.” He likens the to-be-included content to “the Frozen Throne and the Frozen Throne 2, or Brood War and Brood War 2.”
For the record, past Blizzard expansions were priced at about $30.
