Blizzard has released the full schedule for the BlizzConline 2021 which will take place online fully due to the current ongoing pandemic. The all-digital BlizzConline is kicking off in just over a week, and Blizzard has released a schedule of what to expect. The event will span two days and will include announcements from several games including Diablo, WoW, and others.
The BlizzConline will be split between five livestreams, including World of Warcraft, Diablo, Hearthstone, Overwatch, and Strategy. The WoW stream includes some potentially interesting blocks, including a “World of Warcraft: What’s Next,” which will cover new content coming to the game, a deep dive into the development of the game, and a Q&A session with the game’s developers.
Diablo is also getting a What’s Next, deep dive, and Q&A session, as well as a developer roundtable. Hearthstone gets a deep dive and a Q&A, but there is no idea of any big announcements yet. However, the other Blizzard games are not getting as much attention as Diablo and WoW.
Overwatch 2 is getting a behind-the-scenes featurette, and then the rest of the time it’s just interviews with the cast, and esports and community stuff. So, people should not get their hopes up and expect any huge reveals. Strategy fans have even less to get excited for as it’s pretty much just an esports livestream for the two days.
Blizzard has increasingly become all about World of Warcraft in recent years and of their two upcoming projects, Diablo IV seems to be coming together much better than Overwatch 2. So, it is not surprising to see that Blizzard is focusing more on those games.
BlizzConline is starting next week and will take place on February 19 and 20. The full stream schedule can be checked out here.
