Pokémon Go to the polls World of Warcraft? 

According to a report from Kotaku, Blizzard is currently quietly developing a new Warcraft spinoff based on the hit mobile game, Pokémon Go.

The report claims that many people at Blizzard, the popular game developer responsible for World of Warcraft, Starcraft, and Diablo, are big fans of Pokémon Go. Most importantly, World of Warcraft lead designer Cory Stockton is a huge Pokémon fan, which, according to developers, helped push the idea into production.

The new mobile game is currently being developed by a Blizzard “incubation team” for multiple smartphone platforms. Read more…

‘Warcraft 3: Reforged’ resurrects one of the best RTS games of all time

Warcraft III is making its triumphant return with Warcraft III: Reforged, and it feels so good to jump back in.

I had a chance to play Warcraft III: Reforged — a remaster of Blizzard’s indelible 2002 real-time strategy game — at BlizzCon, running through the Culling of Stratholme and being transported back to one of the most impressive stories to ever grace the genre.

The thing that immediately struck me when I started the Warcraft III: Reforged demo was the aesthetic. It’s probably been about 10 years since I last played what I consider to be my favorite RTS game, and Reforged manages to capture that old Warcraft III vibe while updating it to something that looks more modern.

On Friday, Blizzard pulled the curtain on an ambitious new project from one of its most beloved series: Diablo Immortal, a mobile spin on Diablo. Fans were… furious? Not exactly.

In the wake of the announcement, an army of Blizzard trolls materialized on social media to deride the exciting news of a brand new Diablo game — the first in six years. One especially graceless troll asked the developers, in person, if this was an early April Fool’s joke.

Mashable’s Kellen Beck zeroed in on the blowback after trying Diablo Immortal for himself at BlizzCon, the annual event where the reveal happened.  Read more…
