You may or may not remember that about nine months ago there were reports of a deal between Nexon and Blizzard that gave Nexon the rights to develop a new game using the StarCraft IP. At the time, reports were vague and it seemed that the developer might be able to work on multiple StarCraft-related projects.

Be that as it may, it hasn’t been clearly confirmed what, if anything, Nexon was working on. Now we perhaps have an idea of ​​what to expect. A report from the Korean News Agency Korea Economic Daily and shared by Massive surgeryindicates that the company may be working on the StarCraft shooter that players have been hoping for… for how long?

According to the report, StarCraft modder Choi Jun-ho could be involved as a project leader. The report further states that “preliminary preparations” to assemble a team to work on the game have been completed. (Remember, this gave Google Translate Massively.)

Por supuesto, until Blizzard confirms or denies this – which hasn’t happened yet – it’s best to remain cautiously optimistic about the whole thing. It’s also worth remembering that if the report is correct, Nexon is still in its early, early stages and hasn’t even started development yet. So it will be a while at best before we see anything.
