BlizzCon 2019 is scheduled for November 1-3 this year, and we can expect a whole host of announcements from Blizzard’s standard stable of games, which now includes Overwatch.
While all eyes are on a potential Overwatch sequel, we’ll probably get info on the next WoW expansion, possibly a release date for Warcraft III remastered, another token Hearthstone expansion, the next Overwatch hero confirmation, and nominal announcements for games like Heroes of the Storm, Diablo III, and Starcraft II. Oh, and you better believe Blizzard has a lot riding on whether or not they announce Diablo IV. Before that all happens, you can shell out $50 to watch BlizzCon at home (which will provide various channels for on-location livestreams and an archive of videos afterward) and net a ton of digital goodies in the process.
The Warcraft extras include pets and a transmog outfit, Overwatch nets you Tyrande Symmetra and Illidan Genji skins, Hearthstone will gift a “mysterious golden legendary card,” Starcraft II doles out three unit skins and three portraits, Heroes of the Storm is hosting a celestial crab mount and BlizzCon 2019 spray/portraits, and more will be announced at a later date (Diablo III wings are teased, and I imagine that Warcraft III Reforged will have something for it.
Having bought the Virtual Ticket in the past I feel like it’s mostly worth it if you’re a fan of multiple games, especially if you’re planning on catching the esports festivities. If you aren’t shelling out for it, we’ll be covering the event anyway!
