BlizzCon is back! The ultimate celebration of our games and the community that unites us is returning to the Anaheim Convention Center Saturday, September 12, and Sunday, September 13, in 2026.

One of our favorite traditions, BlizzCon brings us together over our shared passion for Blizzard’s universes, but at its heart, BlizzCon has always been about so much more. It’s about you, the communities you are a part of, and gives us the chance to connect, build friendships, and create unforgettable memories together.

We’ve come a long way since our first event in 2005. Over the past nearly 20 years since its inception, BlizzCon has inspired us to innovate, push the boundaries of creativity, and deliver once-in-a-lifetime moments. It’s important that we put on an event worthy of our community. For 2026, alongside BlizzCon staples like Opening Ceremony, in-depth panels, the Darkmoon Faire, friendly competition, hands-on gameplay, and more, we aim to meaningfully elevate this iconic celebration and create an unforgettable experience for all who take part in it. We are building this event just like we build our games: with a deep commitment to our players, with respect for your connections to our universes, and as a celebration of the strength of the bonds formed through shared adventure.

The road to BlizzCon starts here. We can’t wait to share more with you as our plans take shape. Visit BlizzCon.com and sign up to receive BlizzCon updates: be among the first to know when tickets go on sale, and get access to BlizzCon news, special offers, and updates. Follow us on social media on X, Instagram, and Facebook.

See you at BlizzCon!

In the past years Blizzard has been in the media for the work conditions and the acquisition by Microsoft. Also, some years didn't have a BlizzCon.

What do you think about it? Will there be anything StarCraft related? Will you attend?
If it exists, they might announce the possible StarCraft shooter.

My expectations of Blizzard are incredible low by now.
There will be a costume competition thing, there will be a WoW (Classic) expansion, there will be a Hearthstone expansion and there will be some paid DLC content for D4. That's it.

Honestly, I couldn't care less. Too many times have I been disappointed by Blizzard in the last 5 years

Or there could be starcraft ghost/fps/alien vs predator (with Zerg and Protoss instead), a 2v2 ladder and a new netcode for SC:R (similar to the update to wc3 reforged that fixed a couple things) and some random mobile phone / AI shit

No idea tbh. I m just saying if they are calling a new blizzcon after not having it the previous years they must surely have some sort of key reveal(s).

But maybe not who knows ^^

God, I WISH I could be excited for this, but I just can't. Not only is Blizzard's reputation down the drain, they make such lousy products nowadays as well.

Timing seems about right for them to do a Starcraft Helldivers-inspired coop shooter.

Having expectations for Blizzard to do Helldivers extractor style game with Starcraft IP is just non existent for me. just a dream.

In the last 5. Damn, I'm sorry for you. I broke with Blizzard right after D3's release and basically everything that has happened since then has reassured me that it was healthy for me to not have any emotional stakes in Blizzard anymore. Blizzard games are just not aimed at me anymore and that's ok. Fortunately, there are other studios making great games now.

i don't really know what this means, D4 was great except for micro transactions, overwatch was great though overwatch 2 didnt really feel like a new game but it was free so whatever. they had some questionable sidegames like diablo immortal but their main games have always been great.

I don't know. I liked overwatch and indeed it was still a good blizzard game. But i felt every main update after that made the game slightly worse by railroading you into specific roles etc and the overwatch 2 utterly broke it for me.

I really like HotS too but they did a similar thing.

As for Diablo, D3 killed my passion for the series, though i did play D2 remastered a bit. Had 0 interest in D4.

But now it is Microsoft so there may be some hope again
