E3 all of these are pretty much dead. They can just stream it now and not have to pay millions for a giant venue. The world changed.
Plus they already announced the next 3 expacs for wow. Starcraft is dead. Nothing on WC4.

Hearing the complaints of people about the venue. It is kinda no winder that it might be better for them to not hold it and just do smaller things in other game events, like gamescom.
Especially when it doesn’t feel like they have much to announce.

Ouch and on the 20 year anniversary of WoW. That’s a bit disappointing.

MSFT probably wants their major announcements at Xbox shows

What would they showcase at blizzcon now? No new games and a few dead patches for old IPs?
Blizzard isn’t the company it once was, and unfortunately it shall never be again. Rip.

“Tonight we’re happy to announce the new Diablo Immortal 2 with thousands of new microtransactions to make you and our whales happy! You better have a phone now, sucker!”

Weird. I figured they still host the event but charge people an extra fee once inside to access a small tent with a presentation about how there won’t be any news this year.

Didn’t I just read an article that Microsoft was “Letting Blizzard be Blizzard”
In all seriousness though, this isn’t unheard of. Blizzcon has skipped years before.

Could it be because they’ve lost the respect of the fans…

Wow talk about smiting yourself…
They probably don’t have anything to show.
Shucks. I was hoping to steal some milk.
Don’t you guys have Blizzcon at home?
