We don't necessarily cover gaming as a primary focus, but I know there are tons of people out there that love games, and perhaps one of the most beloved franchises of all is Blizzard's StarCraft series. Blizzard sent out a notification last night that the latest trailer will go live in about five minues on Twitch.tv (12PM Pacific), so if you're looking for something to do on your lunch break (or you're East coast and are getting bored at the end of the day), grab a bowl of popcorn and pull up a chair; the show is about to start!

Besides the official reveal, there will be a live discussion with Blizzard developers Chris Metzen, Dustin Browder, and Jeff Chamberlin, along with Community Manager Kevin Johnson. Viewers will be able to participate in the discussion segment by sending questions via Twitter or Vine (#Vengeance). Hopefully this time, we'll see the engine use more than two CPU cores.

Update: If you missed the trailer, you can now watch it on YouTube.

    I just want to know why this isn't an FPS

    If Jarred Walton doesn't update the original post you can easily find it on youtube by searching for "heart of the swarm trailer" and then filtering the results for videos uploaded in the past 24 hours.

    If anyone is wondering about the Korean and worldwide scene of competitive Starcraft (and now DotA 2), the most visted site for the non-Korean Starcraft world is http://www.teamliquid.net :)

    At least you're not advertising a gold reseller site I guess.

    Plus, Team Liquid is awesome.

    Just a rehash of the one released a month ago.

    It's a trailer vs. the opening cinematic, so it has maybe half of the opening cinematic with different voiceovers, plus about an extra minute of stuff that's separate from the opening. And we now have the 3-12-2013 release date as official (not that Blizzard won't push it back if they change their minds).

    Blizzard already confirmed the release date, but this is an altogether different video to the previously released one.

    It's also not going to be pushed back, the only reason it's not already out is multiplayer balance (which is actually not in a horrible state) and Wings of Liberty was hardly balanced at release.

    Pretty excited about HotS, although I'd be more excited if the beta didn't go down the first day of my holidays with the game proper launching my first day back.
