StarCraft artwork for the 20th anniversary celebration

The original StarCraft is perhaps one of the most impressive games ever created. Not only was it an excellent strategy game, but it also fostered a gigantic modding/map-making community and an eSports scene so large its effects are still felt in South Korea today!

With all of that in mind, I am delighted to say that StarCraft is currently celebrating an equally impressive milestone - its 20th anniversary! Rather than babble on, allow me to share with you the recently posted and extremely nostalgic Anniversary Celebration video. Have a gander:

If you would like to join the festivities, as well as pick up some bonus goodies for a variety of other Blizzard games, you should head on over to the official website. You can get things such as bonus packs in Hearthstone, a new legendary Ghost Kerrigan skin in Overwatch, an awesome Battlecruiser pet in Diablo 3, and the list goes on. They're all relatively minor bonuses, but I don't think anyone can really complain about free stuff, especially when most of it looks genuinely good!

Oh, and if this has put you into a very Starcraft-y mood, it is worth mentioning that the original Starcraft and Starcraft 2's multiplayer are completely free to play. So if you're up for a trip down memory lane, or just checking out a darn good RTS, now would be a really good time to do so. Have fun!
