If you've been enjoying the StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm (http://www.joystiq.com/game/starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm) public beta, then we're afraid we've got some bad news – it all comes to an end on March 1. Blizzard has announced the end of the open beta, which concludes just under two weeks prior to the launch of StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm on March 12.
StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm is the second volley in Blizzard's planned three-game delivery (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/10/10/starcraft-2-to-be-released-as-a-trilogy/) for the sequel to its highly-regarded real-time strategy series. We were able to spend some time with Heart of the Swarm last month, feel free to read our impressions (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/01/22/mission-to-evolve-starcraft-2-with-heart-of-the-swarm/) – or, if you just want something pretty to look at, check out the game's introductory cinematic (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/01/22/starcraft-2-heart-of-the-swarm-cinematic-intro-lives-up-to-bliz/).
