What Is the STARCRAFT Website at starcraft.blizzard.com?

Updated

starcraft.blizzard.com is Blizzard Entertainment's official hub for the StarCraft franchise. Its tagline, "Defend Mankind. Join the Dominion.", frames the site around the StarCraft universe and its real-time strategy games. The page serves as an entry point to play or learn about the series, pointing visitors toward StarCraft: Remastered and StarCraft II.

What the site covers

The homepage presents the franchise as a whole rather than a single product. Its main sections include:

  • DEFEND MANKIND — a thematic banner that introduces the Dominion framing and the series' military sci-fi tone.
  • PLAY THROUGH THE HISTORY OF STARCRAFT — a section that walks through the franchise's games.
  • Join the Dominion — a call to action, alongside a "GET UPDATES" prompt for news and announcements.

The games featured

The site highlights two real-time strategy titles:

Game Description on the page Label
StarCraft: Remastered "Relive a Blizzard classic. Remastered upgrades the essential sci-fi strategy experience from beginning to end." Real-time strategy
StarCraft II "Experience the game that redefined the real-time strategy genre. Terran, Zerg, or Protoss – do you have what it takes to become the galaxy's greatest commander?" Real-time strategy • Free to play

StarCraft II is labeled free to play on the page. No pricing details are listed for StarCraft: Remastered, so treat its cost as unconfirmed here.

Who it's for

The site suits two kinds of visitors:

  • New players who want to understand what StarCraft is and where to start, using the game descriptions to pick between the remastered classic and the modern sequel.
  • Returning or existing fans who want updates, franchise history, and a direct route into the games.

Because the page centers on the Dominion theme and the two RTS titles, it works best as a starting point rather than a deep reference — expect to follow links from here for downloads, news, or community content.
