Starcraft II Starter Edition FREE ARCADE MODE (PATCH 2.1) - Play User Created Content for Free

140

Custom Games are also now available in the Starter Edition.

If you ever liked Warcraft III custom maps and modes, Arcade mode is basically that. BUT FREE.

Step 2: Download Starcraft II Starter Edition:
https://us.battle.net/account//download/?show=sc2&starter=sc…

Step 3: Launch the game and either click on ARCADE or CUSTOM GAMES.

Note: I personally haven't tried it yet, since my download speed is too slow and the game size after getting the launcher is 14.1GB

    EDIT: Oh wait, not all modes were f2p and some custom games couldn't be played before p2.1.

  • Great game, hardest game ever though, if you're looking for a challenge try this out! How are the custom maps developing? Haven't played ant in a couple years, back then they were terribad though

    It's not exactly a deal though, since this isn't going to expire anytime soon.

    this is the only reason i got starcraft 2 years ago, the custom games.
    so much fun! only problem was lack population, so this should fix that.

    • hopefully its not too late =\

    • I hope so I pretty much havnt touched starcraft II for almost a year. Been on a few days 6 months ago…

      I think nowadays there are plenty of game engines/SDK available to make your own games.. So it will never have the same developer base as before as seen in Warcraft III
      some of these you can actually make a commercial profit from unlike modding in starcraft II so developers wont hang around for long

      • Warcraft III custom game scene was the shiet!
        loved it

  • Runling run !!!

  • Ladder fixed yet?

    Sick of being stuck in bronze/silver…
