Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2 will be part of BlizzCon Online

We learned via an earnings call earlier this week that Blizzard won't be releasing Diablo 4 or Overwatch 2 this year. However, we will be seeing both games in action at BlizzCon, which takes place later this month. 

The BlizzCon Online schedule went live last night, so we know what to expect in terms of livestreams. The event will be taking place on February 19th across six streaming channels – one for each major segment of Blizzard's library. Diablo, Overwatch, WoW and Hearthstone get their own individual streams, while a separate ‘strategy' team will cover Warcraft and StarCraft.

There are two streams specifically mentioning Diablo and Overwatch 2. The first is Diablo: What's Next, during which we should find out more about Diablo 4. Then, there is a Behind the Scenes stream for Overwatch 2 development.

We are expecting to see new gameplay from both games, with extra bits of information coming from various panels over the course of both streaming days. BlizzCon Online takes place from February 19th – 20th 2021.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
