This is not true at all. they only chose starcraft universe because they have only 3:

can you imagine a shooter in warcraft or diablo universe? especially when there are multiple cash cows running and you risk ruining other games too?

yeah. they wanted to do a shooter then they picked the universe.

And a future rts in starcraft universe has nothing to do with this shooter but they just want to milk some cash from believes.

p.s. have you guys seen the cv of the blizzard ceo?
it will only get worse but anyway I will do here a quick summary

bachelor in theology / religion study 2000-2003 - > 4 years doing music -> manager in NFL (how you even get this position?) -> joined activision in 2018 (as Head of Call of Duty Esports, completely bonkers).

0 gaming experience prior to joining activision, not to say anything but maybe leading "call of duty esports" and all the future "call of duty" positions she occupied before becoming president/ceo, had an impact on: wow we need to make a new game let's make it shooter!

this will be fun tho
