StarCraft Remastered

Overview

Reviews

Price: $15
StarCraft remains a titan of the genre for a reason. Though its interface lacks some contemporary conveniences, Blizzard has still, to this day, failed to outdo itself in terms of the elegant balance between three highly asymmetrical factions that was achieved in Brood War. Whether you want to revisit the glory days or see a piece of gaming history for the first time, StarCraft Remastered is a trip well worth taking.

Somewhere deep in the annals of gaming history, there’s an entire wing dedicated to StarCraft: Brood War. Not only is it regarded as the one RTS to ever come close to reaching a perfect balance between playable races, it also kickstarted what we know today as E-Sports. No one knows what the gaming landscape would look like if Starcraft was never released, but I can say with confidence that it would be drastically different, likely not for the better.
