StarCraft: Remastered went Live on August 14, 2017. Yet, Blizzard Entertainment posted a job opening for a Test Lead to join the Classic Games team.
Toward the end of the job opening text by the “Pluses” section it clearly says: Passion for StarCraft.
Through some techniques I was able to find this job opening was posted on April 7, 2020.
The question is… why would Blizzard Entertainment need a Test Lead for a game that shipped 3 years ago unless you are planning to add some type of content? This job opening is in the “Quality Assurance” job category.
But… StarCraft II is also now considered a Classic Game. So don’t get too excited about new StarCraft: Remastered content.
So what could Blizzard be working on for StarCraft II if this is what the job opening is for? Well, it could be anything such as new Co-op Commanders or a new campaign (i.e. Nova Covert Ops).
Whatever it is… Blizzard has reached a phase where they are drawing close to a PTR testing or sudden release within the next 6-12 months+.
Blizzard Entertainment is now looking for a Lead Game Designer for StarCraft II and two Classic Games.
A few days ago, I posted the sighting of a new Classic Games job opening for a Senior UI/UX Designer for StarCraft, StarCraft 2, WarCraft 3, and Heroes of the Storm.
I mean, I can see how StarCraft II and Heroes of the Storm might need one due to Co-op Commanders; and new Heroes and special events. But think about it… why would StarCraft: Remastered or Warcraft III: Reforged need UI/UX designer support for?
Blizzard Entertainment posted today a brand-new job opening requesting a Senior UI Designer to work in the Classic Games team.
The job description says this developer is going to work with the StarCraft II, Heroes of the Storm, StarCraft: Remastered and Warcraft III: Reforged teams.
