The last time BlizzCon was held in 2023, it was the first time that Xbox CEO Phil Spencer attended. This comes shortly after Microsoft completed its acquisition of Activision Blizzard. This year’s BlizzCon will be held on September 12th and 13th, and the Xbox team has made no secret of the interesting news waiting for players at the show.
Microsoft has officially released Xbox Podcastin which she discusses the upcoming BlizzCon event. Kirsten Crissman, senior director of global events at Blizzard, attended the event. He said directly that major announcements are expected at this year’s show.
What we’re most looking forward to is the opportunity to collaborate with the entire Blizzard community. We’re also looking forward to making our big announcement and seeing the reaction to it.
In another part of the podcast, answer the host’s questions “What announcements can we expect at BlizzCon this year?” Kirsten Chrisman replied: “You know we can’t talk about this right now!”. At the same time, he confirmed that these announcements don’t just involve updates for existing games. Players will also get some huge surprises.
Back in August, Blizzard CEO Joanna Faris also hinted that major announcements should be made at BlizzCon. Industry insiders report that a StarCraft shooter could be unveiled at the show, despite rumors surrounding the future of the series.
