Fortunately, BlizzCon 2021 is here to make up for lost time with an all-digital event full of updates on the latest and greatest from Blizzard Entertainment. This means that if you’ve been waiting to hear more about all of those new Diablo projects, Overwatch 2, and what’s new with World of Warcraft, now’s your time! Although the virtual nature of the event means that attendees won’t be able to gather under one roof for exciting tournaments and a surprise-filled Opening Ceremony, Blizzard is still bringing quite a lot to this year’s event. The studio has promised to reveal what’s next for most of its major properties, which means we’re bound to get a few big announcements and surprises during the Opening Ceremony on Friday. What could be on the docket? Diablo 4 and the Diablo Immortal mobile game are logical guesses. Blizzard has already announced these projects, so updates on each should be in order. Perhaps we’ll even learn when these games are coming out? There’s also the long-rumored Diablo animated series that could be in the works. An official confirmation would be a very nice surprise, indeed. Most recently, a Diablo 2 remaster became the subject of much speculation as a potential project meant to keep the chair warm until Diablo 4 releases. The point is that there could be a lot of Diablo at this year’s event. World of Warcraft has enjoyed a bit of the limelight of late, with the release of the new Shadowlands expansion as well as the studio’s continuing work on Classic, which brought the MMORPG back to its roots, revitalizing the experience for many gamers. The future of WoW will almost definitely be a topic of discussion at this year’s show. Here’s everything else you need to know about BlizzCon 2021:
