StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void Reviews

Professional reviews from gaming critics

Legacy of the Void is an unmatched RTS, and helps to ensure that StarCraft II is easily the best RTS to be released for nearly a decade. If you are even remotely interested in StarCraft, buy it.

If you’re invested in StarCraft II‘s story already, you likely won’t be disappointed by Legacy of the Void‘s tale. If you haven’t played any form of StarCraft II yet and are intrigued by the prospect of another RTS, this is probably the strongest the game has ever been. It’s a perfect time to jump in.

StarCraft II has come to an end. There will be DLC eventually, but what’s known has already been confirmed as spin-off stories. So what does Legacy of the Void do that hasn’t already been done? I’ll tell you perhaps the most important thing it does. It proudly carries the StarCraft mantle to another finish line and establishes itself as a worthy platform that will continue to provide great contests between the quick-witted and fast fingered for months upon years to come. It doesn’t go...

Legacy of the Void is a triumphant swan song for the Starcraft 2 trilogy, boasting a fantastic Campaign mode, fun casual multiplayer and a robust competitive multiplayer scene. Starcraft is a game about planning and forethought, and that’s definitely something that Blizzard had in mind when making Legacy of the Void: in its aims to finish the Starcraft narrative, accommodate for new players and reinvigorate the competitive scene, this game is everything that it needs to be. There’s really something for everyone in this title regardless of your experience in RTS games, with a great story, h…

StarCraft II Legacy of the Void is the culmination of years of improvements. Archon and co-op modes provide a stair step for new players and veterans alike to rejoin the multiplayer ranks, whereas the incredibly strong single player ties up the story arc nicely. While most sequels don’t feel the freedom to innovate, Blizzard has done exactly that, making the venerable series feel fresh and new.

The real-time strategy genre, once proud king of the PC gaming sphere, has all but been laid low over the past decade, infiltrated and co-opted by the multiplayer-online battle arena. StarCraft has defied the MOBA uprising, keeping the resource-gathering and action-per-minute metrics relevant and respected within the gaming galaxy. Five long years since the release of Wings of Liberty, the StarCraft II story comes to an end with Legacy of the Void, resolving the fate of many beloved characters and bringing some old faces out to play once more.

A couple of years ago I swore off StarCraft II’s competitive multiplayer, convinced that I would never return.

Overall, Legacy of the Void is a great epic final chapter with a compelling story that answers all of your questions about the Void and the Queen of Blades’ purpose. With eSports growing, the multiplayer aspect of Legacy of the Void is indeed going to be still a success. StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void gives what a final-chapter should be. The compelling story of the Protoss and their struggle to fight for their freedom and legacy marks the closure of the StarCraft narrative; with having all of the old favorite units back makes the trilogy complete.

Dan takes a look at the final installment in the Starcraft 2 series, and gives his verdict on the campaign. Strange as it may sound in the StarCraft world, I've never been a big fan of the Protoss [...]
