Let’s start by talking about Diablo, which will be on display with its expansion Vessel of Hatred that will be available in October. There will be a demo that will allow you to try the Spiritist class and also the Nahantu area. In total there will be 50 gaming stations and also the possibility of seeing cosplays of the Spiritist and the villagers (you can also take a picture with them).
As for Diablo Immortal, there will be an “immersive environment that transports you into the game’s unique realm.” New content will be shown off, such as the Crucible of Justice and a Diablo Immortal Helliquary boss tournament. There will be a two-stage, four-player cooperative raid boss event. There will also be a chance to watch the event from the stands, take pictures, and wield El’Druin’s sword. There will also be some giveaways.
Speaking of World of Warcraft, the game will celebrate the launch (August 26, if you buy the Epic Edition or the physical collector’s edition will be available from August 23 with early access) of The War Within with a special immersive experience through which you can try Skyriding in Azeroth. There will also be well-known European influencers who will be live streaming from the booth. It will be possible to take photos with a green screen.
Finally, on the subject of Overwatch 2, there will be a joint booth with Porsche for the new collaboration. There will also be a life-size D. Va statue modeled after the new all-electric Macan.
