According to the game site ComputerAndVideoGames.com, the product to be announced at the Blizzard World Wide Invitational will be a massive-multiplayer online (MMO) game in the World of WarCraft style. This comes from a well placed US source, states CVG.
Well placed US sources have revealed to us that the StarCraft MMO will be unveiled at an upcoming Blizzard event on May 19 in South Korea - the epicentre of the sci-fi RTS series' rabid fandom.
The unveiling of the new instalment has previously been rumoured for the South Korea event, though we now know that the title is in fact an online spin-off and not a new RTS game as previously assumed.

We would like you to keep in mind that this is only more smoke added to the fire, but the site it comes from is a highly respectable computer and video games site, having known magazines such as PCGamer and the XBOX World 360 magazine.
Worth to note is that Blizzard had leading job openings in next-generation MMO positions.
Two more weeks, then we will know.
