This year BlizzCon news was presented for World of Warcraft, Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4. But these are all things that are aimed at reliable income. Blizzard, under Activision, couldn’t afford to risk anything else. The situation is changing under the leadership of Microsoft.
President of Blizzard Mike Ibarra looks forward to a new era led by Microsoft. I’m looking forward to it creative freedomwhen Blizzard becomes more like an independent studio. For this reason, Ibarra is not against developing small games that will not be delivered in real time. Simply put, the world doesn’t end with Diablo, Warcraft and Overwatch.
“We are not afraid to create new brands. We’re not afraid to flip models.” stated Ibarra, adding that it could be a four-hour gaming experience or a four-hundred-hour gaming experience. So don’t be shy about single-player games either.
Gamers are up in arms after Microsoft completed its $68.7 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard King. after Starcraft returns. Apparently she wants him too Phil Spencer, head of Microsoft’s gaming division. Even Ibarra is not against him, but first he needs someone with vision and passion. In other words, it needs developers who have a good understanding of the StarCraft world. The possibility of another genre is also not excluded, because there was already an attempt at a first-person shooter, but it was cancelled. The problem may be that in recent years a lot of experienced creators have left Blizzard because Activision didn’t give them a chance and didn’t want real-time strategy games and less profitable projects.
