Blizzard has mentioned his desire to “take the event to a new level” through an experience that leaves a footprint, as did past editions that remain remembered for their relevance. Any example? The presentation of ‘World of Warcraft’ in 2005, ‘Diablo III’ in 2008, ‘Overwatch’ in 2014, and the recent ones’Devil IV‘ and ‘Overwatch 2‘In 2019. In addition, the house has reinforced its intention to offer something unique in this edition. This could involve the presentation of unpublished content and new formats.
Blizzcon’s return also reflects the efforts of those responsible to consolidate his position within the sector. After the numerous internal problems that the company has gone through and the transformation that has resulted from these, next year’s event is perceived as a warning of its relevance in the industry. For this reason, players of playful formulas as powerful as ‘World of Warcraft’, ‘Starcraft’ and other Blizzard titles have many reasons to wait for the appointment of the beginning of a new stage in the software factory.
