Speaking at GamesCom 2011 in Cologne today, Blizzard has said it currently has no plans to even develop at StarCraft 2 MMO, claiming it is far too busy with other projects at the moment.
'
We definitely feel like all the worlds we create would lend themselves well to multiple genres and multiple forms of media,' said Blizzard co-founder Frank Pearce, cagily.
'
If there was a development team within Blizzard that was free and available to create a StarCraft MMO and that was something they were really passionate about then we would certainly consider it...But right now..., we've got our hands full with everything we're doing.'
'
We don't really have any plans to do anything beyond the StarCraft RTSes and the expansions right now,' he clarified.
Blizzard is currently working on StarCraft: Heart of the Swarm, the Zerg-focused follow-up to StarCraft 2, plus World of WarCraft, Diablo 3 and the mysterious
Project Titan.

StarCraft has a strong storyline to it, as the Old Rivals trailer below shows, though you'd need a heck of a lot of friends and clan members to really create a Zurg rush in a StarCraft MMO...
