Starcraft II could go free-to-play

Blizzard might make strategy game Starcraft II a free-to-play title.

Lead designer, Dustin Browder, was asked about whether Starcraft II would ever adopt the free-to-play model at a recent event.

PCGamesN reports that Browder said Blizzard is "looking at free-to-play as an option for the multiplayer."

He added: "We don't know how we would monetise it. While it might be good fun for me to play against someone with only half the units available to them, that's not going to be an enjoyable experience for them."

Earlier this year Browder claimed the next expansion for Starcraft II, Heart of the Swarm, was 99% done.
