Blizzard is jumping on the 3D bandwagon, as StarCraft 2 production director Chris Sigaty has revealed a patch will be issued for the game soon after its release that'll at 3D for those who can take advantage of it.
"We will be releasing 3D in the first few months, for those Nvidia cards and screens that support it," Sigaty told IGN (via VG247). And despite Nvidia being name-dropped specifically (and despite the fact Nvidia had a presence at the StarCraft 2 event in Seoul, South Korea where the interview was taking place), Sigaty also assured that they're "optimizing for all systems."
But 3D effects aren't the only graphical update that StarCraft 2 will get, as Sigaty also said Blizzard intends to continue to update the game with new visual features as time goes on and "median hardware gets faster." And while Sigaty also confirmed StarCraft 2 won't support anti-aliasing (a technique used to smooth out the rough edges in 3D graphics) out of the box, that could be one of the graphical updates the game receives later on.
StarCraft 2 is set for release in just a few weeks, on July 27.
