ANAHEIM, CALIF. — Blizzard isn’t quite done with StarCraft II’s universe just yet.

At its ninth BlizzCon fan convention, the developer announced that after StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void releases on November 10, the StarCraft team will keep cranking out new content for its flagship real-time strategy game. Mission Packs will tell new stories and offer new levels starting next year.

Blizzard teased the first Mission Pack, Nova Covert Ops, in a brief trailer. The famous Terran sniper wakes up in a mysterious place before gearing up for a new battle. Nova Covert Ops will launch in spring 2016 with three new campaign levels.
