Stormgate: Opening Cinematic

Stormgate is being developed by Frost Giant Studios, a team of experienced RTS developers who previously worked on StarCraft and Warcraft1. The studio was founded by industry veterans Tim Morten and Tim Campbell in October 2020, with the intention of building an accessible real-time strategy game6.

The relationship between the developers of Stormgate and StarCraft lies in the fact that Stormgate is being developed by Frost Giant Studios, a team composed of many former Blizzard Entertainment developers who worked on games like StarCraft 2 and Warcraft 3. These developers have come together to create a new real-time strategy game, Stormgate, which promises an “ever-evolving story through thrilling campaign missions where science fiction and fantasy collide5.” The game has been described as having a very StarCraft-y feel, and it aims to reinvigorate the RTS genre, taking inspiration from the legacy of StarCraft and other classic strategy games.
