During this week’s podcast, Justin made a joke about the potential for a “WoW Immortal” that… doesn’t seem like such a joke, especially given Allen Adham’s comments about working on more mobile games at BlizzCon. We’ve been debating Blizzard’s next moves in the MMO space and with its franchises over the last few months thanks to some intrepid readers urging us along in the discussion, and a month or two ago, we were pretty confident that Blizzard would eventually try again. I think I even said I would be shocked to find out that Blizzard doesn’t have some sort of Overwatch ORPG or World of Warcraft 2 in its design incubators somewhere, even if they never make it to a playable stage.
But with the added context of BlizzCon’s mobile Diablo Immortal, as well as moves by MMORPG companies like CCP Games and NCsoft in the mobile space, we have to wonder whether Blizzard is eyeing a mobile version of WoW too – not just a mobile game set in the Warcraft world, but a WoW Mobile specifically. Let’s see what you think in today’s Leaderboard.
