A rumor circulated last year that a High-Def update of Blizzard's amazing sci-fi RTS StarCraft is already under development, and it would be revealed in September 2016. Blizzard did not confirm or denied this rumor, though, and they only said that they have no announcements to make as of that time. When September came, nothing was revealed at all about it, thus signifying its end.
As of now, this story has again reappeared. Currently, it showed up on a Korean e-sports site Sports Seoul. It reported that StarCraft: Remastered is still under development and it is expected to be ready for release sometime in May or June. The report said that an official announcement could be revealed as early as next week, according to a report from PC Gamer.
As noted, the Google translation of the report is quite messy, though. However, it appeared that the updated StarCraft would be offering the same gameplay like the one that was originally released. It also has HD graphics and Battle.net support. The report also said that the game would be revealed into selected e-sports broadcasters, sponsors and key stakeholders last November during BlizzCon.
It sounds like the last detail left a lot of doubts. It is because it seems to represent one major flaw for all conspiracy theories, which requires most involved people to keep silent. In addition, it is not just about a shadowy government cabal that has an experience in keeping a lot of secrets. The question is how it happened that streamers and some members of the e-sports community know the emergence of a remastered StarCraft for months without any word about it. Blizzard predictably decided just to let things remain as it is, as they declare on not commenting on any particular rumors or explanations.
