Overview
- BlizzCon opens on Saturday, September 12, with an Opening Ceremony that begins at 10:30 a.m. PDT and will be livestreamed on Blizzard’s official YouTube and Twitch channels.
- Blizzard has confirmed World of Warcraft, Diablo, Overwatch, Hearthstone, and StarCraft will all have main‑stage presence and multiple developer panels across Sept. 12–13.
- World of Warcraft leads the schedule with several “What’s Next” and deep‑dive sessions, and press and community coverage say an initial tease of the rumored next expansion, The Last Titan, is possible but remains unconfirmed.
- StarCraft is the focus of active teasers and an ARG on Blizzard’s channels, and reports of talks with Korean publisher Nexon have raised expectations for a new StarCraft project that must still be confirmed at the show.
- Diablo gets a developer update during the Opening Ceremony to mark the franchise’s 30th anniversary, Overwatch will hold a Hero Deep Dive that could reveal one or more promised new heroes, and in‑person passes are reported sold out while the free livestream widens reach.
