Blizzards cancelled StarCraft: Ghost leaks in playable form – Engadget

This isn’t ready to make you lament the game’s fate. It appears like basic third-party shooter fare from the early 2000s, just set in the StarCraft universe. You can utilize your arsenal (including a Ghost’s signature sniper rifle), environmental expedition and a little bit of stealth to help the Terrans survive. The title looks great for the time, but not like an ageless classic.

You likely know occurred after Blizzard axed Ghost. The company switched its focus to games like StarCraft II, and it wasn’t until 2016’s Overwatch that you could get an on-the-ground 3D action title. That does not make the apparent leak any less fascinating, though. It’s a picture of Blizzard attempting (and eventually stopping working) to diversify its gaming experiences at an important moment in the company’s history.
