Calling Nexon the publishers of Dave the Diver is technically correct, but it paints a very different picture of them than reality.

They are primarily a publisher of free to play, pay to win mobile addiction games.

This is going to be a Diablo Immortal (Don't you have phones?) style cash-grab with a Starcraft skin.

Yeah seriously

They're known for Maplestory and Combat Arms

Two games they ruined with enshittification

Free to play Mobile.

Overwatch is getting a mobile version too

I would be shocked if it would not turn into another case of trampling on a childhood memory

There is already an sc2 sequel it is called Zerospace. Tempest Rising is a new Red Alert alternative.

Wait... Blizzard is selling the rights? Does that mean that Nexon can do anything they like?

Old Blizzard is dead. Starcraft will turn into a moblie game or maybe some hero shooter.

Blizzard could have easily flipped Diablo and Starcraft. Make Diablo an RTS with Angel/Demon/Human factions.

Make Starcraft an iso dungeon crawler long after the war.

Whatever.
