Activision Blizzard mentioned the development of a new Warcraft game through a conference call to announce its earnings. The expansion of the World of Warcraft (hereinafter referred to as WoW) community has also been mentioned, so the appearance of mobile MMORPGs based on WoW is drawing attention.
Activision Blizzard, CEO of Bobby Kotic, delivered information related to the new Warcraft game through the 2020 annual and fourth quarter earnings announcement conference calls held on the 4th (locally). “We plan to provide quality content more often and expand the World of Warcraft community for the Warcraft franchise,” he said. Based on IP, advanced development is in progress.”
What can be expected from this remark is that we are preparing a number of new mobile titles that are partially paid for Warcraft. Here, the part where Kotick CEO picked up the “World of Warcraft Community” was also drawing attention.
As for the new Warcraft Mobile game, there have been rumors that it is producing AR games like Pokemon GO. However, if there are many new Warcraft mobile titles prepared by Blizzard, and among them, there are titles based on World of Warcraft, there is a high possibility of a new MMORPG that is evaluated as highly profitable in the mobile market.
Meanwhile, Blizzard plans to deliver new news about its game through the online Blizz Conline on the 20th and 21st. As expected, whether Blizzard is preparing a mobile game based on Warcraft or WoW, and if so, it remains to be seen whether the reality will be revealed for the first time at BlizzCon.
