StarCraft: Remastered is an updated version of the cult strategy from Blizzard, released in 1998. The re-release debuted in August 2017 and includes the Brood War expansion.
StarCraft 2: Campaign Collection, meanwhile, contains over 70 missions from Wings of Liberty, Heart of the Swarm, and Legacy of the Void (with the Nova Covert Ops expansion), released between 2010 and 2015.

The games in the series tell the story of a grand battle for the fate of the Koprulu sector in the 25th century between three diverse factions – the Terrans (humans), the insect-like Zerg and the technologically advanced Protoss.
Almost nine years have passed since the completion of the StarCraft 2 trilogy (and a little less than four since the end of its active support). There is still no new release on the horizon, although the former president of Blizzard believes in the return of the series.
