Good news for StarCraft fans as Blizzard has unveiled new details about StarCraft II and that online retailers have confirmed the StarCraft II: Legacy Of The Void release date.

It has been reported by Xander Reyes of the Latino Gaming Review that the StarCraft II: Legacy Of The Void beta release date has been set to March 2015 as was revealed by online retailers in Russia.

Meanwhile, Cyberland has reported that the StarCraft II beta is allegedly going to be this January 2015.

During Blizzcon, Blizzard has also announced two new modes for StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void, namely the Archon Mode and Allied Commanders Mode:

"Archon Mode is a competitive multiplayer mode, described as a new way to enjoy StarCraft II with friends. In Archon Mode, two players share control over a single base and units as they take on an enemy duo in multiplayer action. By sharing the responsibility of commanding troops and managing resources, players can focus on their own areas of the battle and execute more intricate strategies."

"On the other hand, in Allied Commanders - a cooperative experience - players can team up and take on the roles of powerful commanders from the StarCraft saga. Each commander offers unique abilities and upgrades and bestows special bonuses on their armies. Players are able to battle through a series of special scenarios together, leveling up their commanders' capabilities as they progress."

"Multiplayer battles in Legacy of the Void will be fought with an array of new units, as well as upgrades to veteran forces. Zerg swarms will welcome the return of the Lurker, a classic creature from the original StarCraft that lays waste to infantry with deadly spines that burst from the ground. The Protoss field a new weapon called the Disruptor, which can use massive energy spikes to wreak havoc through swaths of ground forces. And the Terrans have engineered some new technology, such as Tactical Jump, which allows their Battlecruisers to teleport to any location on the battlefield. Several more new units and abilities were exhibited at BlizzCon, showcasing the new strategic and tactical options in store for players with Legacy of the Void."
