Today, Blizzard will be revealing a brand new game for mobile devices. Set in the Warcraft universe, this game will likely incorporate familiar locations and characters. Official details are set to be shared in the announcement livestream, which is set to go down soon. Here’s how you can tune in and see what’s next for the Warcraft franchise.
The World of Warcraft mobile game reveal livestream will take place today, May 3, at 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET. The event is being broadcasted on Blizzard’s official website, and this is the only place that it will be available for live viewing. However, it’s likely that Blizzard will upload the presentation to the World of Warcraft YouTube channel following its conclusion.
Details about the new Warcraft universe game are unknown, other than the fact that it will be a mobile game. The only potential clue comes in the graphic used for the presentation’s announcement, which depicts some sort of gear with a lightning bolt inside of it. It’s quite possible that we could see the Warcraft franchise branch out into a new genre with its latest release.
This move certainly follows the recent trends of some of gaming’s biggest franchises getting mobile spinoffs. With how massive of a market there is on iOS and Android, it’s no surprise that one of gaming’s most iconic IPs is coming to the platform. We’ll be keeping a close eye on the Warcraft mobile game reveal and will report the news back to you on our topic page dedicated to the Warcraft series.
