StarCraft II in 2010, Diablo III Later
Stephen Totilo (formerly at MTV, now of Kotaku) dug up a picture of a slide presented by Activision Blizzard chief financial officer Thomas Tippl, which gives a 2010 release for StarCraft II, World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, and the promised Battle.net upgrade.
Under the "next few years" banner, Tippl's slide lists Diablo III, the nebulous unannounced MMO that Blizzard has been teasing for years, and StarCraft expansions.
This information should come as a shock to no one, but it's nice to have confirmation. Tell us why you think Diablo III should come out before StarCraft II, or how Blizzard is soaking you for every dime in your piggy bank with multiple SCII releases, in the comments below.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
