If you’re anxiously awaiting the Heart of Swarm expansion for StarCraft II, then you’ll be pleased to know that Blizzard has put out a list of the worldwide times of when the servers will go live.
The Heart of Swarm expansion pack will require a connection to the Blizzard Battlen.net servers to play. This means that if you somehow managed to obtain a copy early, it will not run on the servers. Players will also obviously need the original StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty to play the expansion.
