In a bid to rejuvenate the real-time strategy genre, veteran Blizzard game developers Tim Morten and Tim Campbell have founded a new studio, Frost Giant, whose goal is to produce an RTS game accessible to a wide audience. The pair has years of collective experience in the real-time strategy space: Morten, a former production director at Blizzard Entertainment, was the brains behind “StarCraft II’s” transition to a free-to-play live service model in 2017, and Campbell was the original lead campaign director for “Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.”
Real-time strategy games were the first modern esports titles. But in recent years, the genre has developed a reputation as the domain of die-hard superfans and notorious for a high barrier to entry. In an era of competitive gaming dominated by multiplayer online battle arena titles like “League of Legends” and first-person shooters like “CS:GO,” more complex RTS games like “StarCraft II” have seen a relative decline in both viewership and player numbers.
The formation of Frost Giant Studios comes at a significant moment for fans of real-time strategy. On October 15, Blizzard published a blog post informing “StarCraft II” players that the company would no longer be producing new content for the 10-year-old RTS title. “We will continue doing season rolls and necessary balance fixes moving forward,” wrote executive producer Robert Bridenbecker.
