Publisher Archon Studio has announced a partnership with Blizzard Entertainment for the re-introduction of the StarCraft video game universe to tabletop gaming, with a tabletop miniatures game coming in 2026, followed by board games set in the StarCraft universe in 2027.

Here’s an excerpt from that announcement:

The StarCraft Tabletop Miniatures Game will allow players to command their favorite factions — Terran, Zerg, and Protoss — in dynamic, tactical battles, staying true to the fast-paced and strategic essence of the beloved RTS game. The game will feature high-quality miniatures, rich gameplay mechanics, and deep faction customization, ensuring an experience that both StarCraft veterans and tabletop wargamers will love.

Further details will be revealed later this year, including previews of miniatures and gameplay mechanics. Stay tuned for updates as we bring the battle for the Koprulu Sector to tabletops worldwide!

A question from a newb: Does StarCraft have more than three factions, with some of them being non-favorites? Or does it have only three, all of which are somebody’s favorite?

Archon Studio will hold an “Ask Us Anything” livestream on YouTube on April 3, 2025, so I’ll be sure to ask my question at that time…
