Blizzard’s upcoming first expansion pack to last year’s monumental smash-hit real-time strategy game, StarCraft II, is fast approaching, and Blizzard is building up hype by revealing teaser silhouettes of new units through their Facebook page.

Revealed so far have been additions to the Terran army and Zerg swarm, with the promise of a Protoss unit tomorrow. Without any reference to scale, its difficult to tell the sizes of these mysterious soldiers – the Terran unit could either be some kind of armored infantry or a mech-sized robot. The Zerg model appears to have some sort of armored rear and claw-like appendages that seem tailor-made for the longstanding Zerg strategy of burrowing.

Hit the break below to check out the images for yourself. Blizzard is set to reveal more information on these units – and Heart of the Swarm itself – at Blizzcon next week, where Piki Geek will be on location to bring you all the updates as they’re announced.

    Looks interesting. Hopefully it won’t imbalance the game horribly.
