Blizzard Entertainment will not be holding their annual BlizzCon convention this year. Eexecutive producer behind BlizzConn, Saralyn Smith, confirmed this news, stating health and logistical concerns were withholding the mass gathering. However, Blizzard is considering an online event for early 2021.
On the official BlizzConn website, Smith said “after considering our options, we’ve come to the very difficult decision to not have BlizzCon this year.” Smith in April stated that amid all of the event cancellations , it was “too early to know whether BlizzCon 2020 will be feasible.”
Blizzard fans were hoping for updates from the company and may have something to look forward to in 2021.
Blizzard is currently expecting to release a multitude of games, some of which include Overwatch 2, Diablo: Immortal, Diablo 4, and World of Warcraft: Shadowlands.
