Activision announced in their quarterly earnings call Tuesday that Blizzard will not have a major frontline release for 2019.
“Turning to Blizzard, we expect materially lower financial performance this year,” Activision said. “2018 benefited from the release of World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth, whereas we are not planning a major frontline release for 2019.”
Blizzard said they finished their fourth-quarter with, “softness for its in-game revenues that will take time to stabilize and return to growth.”
The call also noted that, “While these factors will weigh on Blizzard’s financials this year, looking further ahead, Blizzard’s pipeline of PC, console, and mobile content is richer than ever, and we expect the significant addition of development resources to accelerate the pace of delivery over time.”
