Unfortunately, for those of you expecting a kind of full-fledged co-op campaign, you’re in for some disappointment. After all, StarCraft II‘s campaign is freaking awesome, so the idea of doing campaign style co-op missions with a buddy is definitely a good one. Co-op missions, the first of these, sounds like a fantastic idea.
There are two entirely new game modes designed to beckon the more “casual” gamer, who would usually only play the game’s single-player component, into giving multiplayer a whirl.
Legacy of The Void‘s multiplayer adds some new stuff that will appeal to both new and old RTS gamers, without shaking up too much of what made multiplayer StarCraft so great in the first place. While the game’s single-player campaign is obviously a very big part of it, the multiplayer is what most fans are going to be pouring their time into, so we felt it fair to review the two segments separately. StarCraft II is pretty much the only big one still going, so Legacy of The Void is the only thing RTS fans have had to look forward to for quite some time. The genre, which used to be one of the foremost multiplayer genres, has taken a back-seat to the likes of MOBAs and shooters. It’s not easy being an RTS fan these days.
