Virophages are zerg structures. They infest colonies with their exhalations, which then spawn infested terrans.

In StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, they first appear in the mission Haven's Fall. They were also seen on Meinhoff in Left 2 Die.

Later Sarah Kerrigan and Alexei Stukov invaded Skygeirr Station. Kerrigan's zerg took control of the garrisons there and created virophages around them, infesting the personnel within and using them against the remaining defenders.

During the End War., a virophage appeared on a fringe Terran Dominion colony and began spreading infestation. However, it would only surface at night. Lieutenant Rosa Morales asked allied commanders to destroy the virophage while stemming the infestation.

Game Unit

Wings of Liberty

Virophages appear during the Wings of Liberty mission "Haven's Fall." They are the objectives of the map, and must be destroyed to complete the mission.

Abilities

Infestation Source: Virophages infest nearby colonist huts, which produce various kinds of infested terrans.

Heart of the Swarm

Virophages appear in the mission "Infested," and can be placed near beacons by infestors in order to spawn waves of infested terrans that move against defenses when the platform's gas is not active. During the gas phase, attack waves will be sent against the virophages, but they can be replanted if destroyed.

Co-op Missions

A virophage appears as the bonus objective on the Co-op Missions map "Dead of Night." It is defended by Amon's Forces, and only appears during the night cycle.

Left 2 Die

Virophages appear on the official arcade map "Left 2 Die." They serve no function aside from acting as an infested structure, and must be destroyed to achieve victory.
