StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Unlikely to Appear in 2012, Analyst Says


The next big installment in the StarCraft 2 trilogy might not appear this year, as games industry analyst Doug Creutz believes that Blizzard will release the upcoming Heart of the Swarm title next year.

Blizzard is notorious for taking its time while crafting new games, as highlighted by the lengthy development of Diablo 3.

Now, after confirming that it’s going to release the Mists of Pandaria expansion for World of Warcraft this September, Cowen & Company analyst Doug Creutz has speculated that StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm might not be released this year.

"Typically, Blizzard puts its new titles into beta for 3-6 months before they are officially released. With only 5 months left in the year, while it is still possible that Swarm could make the fiscal year, we are now assuming it ships in FY13," he said, via CVG.

Blizzard said earlier this year that, given Diablo 3’s launch in May, it was safe to assume that it was going to release another big title towards the end of the year. Seeing as how that title is Mists of Pandaria, StarCraft 2 fans will have to wait until next year to experience the next installment.
