Blizzard publishes a global list of when the game will activate in each region.

Blizzard has put out a list of worldwide times when StarCraft II's first expansion, Heart of the Swarm, will launch across the world.

Seeing as StarCraft II requires a connection to Blizzard's Battle.net servers to play, even physical copies of Heart of the Swarm obtained early will not run before this time. Heart of the Swarm also requires a copy of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty to play.

GameSpot's review for StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm is in the works.

The approximate time when the game will go live across each region is posted below. Times displayed are local:
