Blizzard's popular science fiction RTS game StarCraft, which was released in 1998 and since then was able to sell more than 11 million copies worldwide, is "currently scheduled for a release at the end of this year, Blizzard president Mike Morhaime announced today in an Activision Blizzard pre-E3 conference call.

"We're targeting an end of year release--this year--for StarCraft 2," said Morhaime of the PC strategy title. "But as always, we won't release it until it meets our standards and the expectations of our players."

This confirms earlier rumors that the first installment of the new StarCraft trilogy, Terrans: Wings of Liberty, will be out in time for this year's holiday season.
