Ares (game)

Ares was the codename of a canceled first-person shooter set in the StarCraft universe.

The game was described as Battlefield in the StarCraft universe. Builds were constructed were players, as terran marines, could gun down zerg. Plans were made to allow for players to also play as the zerg. It was designed in the Overwatch engine, and led by Dustin Browder.

The project had been in development since 2017 according to some sources. It was canceled early June 2019. The cancelation came as a "massive shock" to the staff, who had stated that development was coming along on the project. Some staff had indicated that the cancelation was to make way for a future Diablo and Overwatch project.
