This will be the company\u2019s first major IP since releasing Overwatch back in 2016. \u201cBlizzard is embarking on our next quest,\u201d the company wrote. \u201cWe are going on a journey to a whole new universe, home to a brand-new survival game for PC and console. \u201cA place full of heroes we have yet to meet, stories yet to be told, and adventures yet to be lived. A vast realm of possibility, waiting to be explored.\u201d Notably, the company has yet to experiment with the battle royale genre or anything that looks like an action survival title. It\u2019s unclear where Blizzard will take its IP but it sounds like some teams inside already have a basic version to start testing. \u201cI\u2019ve played many hours of this project with the team,\u201d Blizzard Manager Mike Ybarra said. \u201cI\u2019m incredibly excited about the team\u2019s vision and the brand-new world it presents for players to immerse themselves in together.\u201d I\u2019ve played many hours of this project with the team and I\u2019m incredibly excited about the teams vision and the brand-new world it presents for players to immerse themselves in together.

We\u2019ve seen titles stretch the boundaries of what the company normally creates but, admittedly, with the use of established characters or worlds like Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm. Overwatch was the company\u2019s first modern swerve from its formula of fantasy landscapes. It was met with enormous success at launch and even fostered an esports scene shortly after. Details of Blizzard\u2019s new game are scarce but the developers are looking to bring on fresh talent as they explore a genre they\u2019ve yet to dip into.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
