The long awaited Zerg have been revealed over at the official Starcraft 2 site! Here’s some of the preliminary information: (thanks to Starcraft-Source.com)

Units:

Roaches

  • Very fast speed + high regeneration rate
  • Absorbs lot of damage so without focus fire on this unit, it won’t be easily killed

Overload:

  • Creates creep, more special abilities are added, slow + no attack
  • Has some kind of disruption skill but is not a detector
  • Can mutate into Overseer

Overseer

  • Detector; can see far away

Queen

  • Completely different from Queen of original Starcraft
  • Very powerful, can own only one queen at a time
  • It is land unit and can attack
  • Many special abilities including creating defensive buildings, toxic creep + tunnel
  • It can mutate and the mutated Queen can make Deep Tunnel (teleport to any Zerg building??)

(Toxic Creep)

  • Damages units on this kind of creep

(Swarm Infestation)

  • Temporarily turn Zerg buildings into defensive fortress

(Regeneration)

  • Restores HP of building quickly


Baneling

  • Suicide attacker, moves like ball (rolls), mutated from Zergling


Nydus Worm

  • Makes entrance/exit anywhere on the map


Infestor

  • Spell support unit. Has Dark Swarm and some old Zerg spells too, can’t attack
  • Moves while in burrow mode + Disease skill too
  • Uses Infestation to infest buildings; Infested buildings can produce Infested marines at rapid rate
  • Create aura around single unit, which damages any unit near it


Swarm Guardian

  • Mutation of Mutalisks
  • Has a long range attack, and can produce broodlings

Zergling

  • Fast, useful in groups

Hydralisk

  • Same as before

Mutalisks

  • Still has “bounce” attack

Lurker

  • Same as in SC I

Infested Marine

  • Created from Infested buidlings, slow but similar to marines
  • Perhaps has ranged attack instead of suicide bombing?


Ultralisks

  • Most powerful Zerg Unit
  • Has splash damage + high HP

Corruptor

  • Infests other unit (it is not mind control)
  • Air to Air unit
  • Infested air units become stationary turrets
