Blizzcon 2024 is Cancelled

https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/blizzcon/24072107/an-update-on-this-year-s-blizzcon-and-blizzard-s-2024-live-events

After careful consideration over the last year, we at Blizzard have made the decision not to hold BlizzCon in 2024. This decision was not made lightly as BlizzCon remains a very special event for all of us, and we know many of you look forward to it. While we're approaching this year differently and as we have explored different event formats in the past, rest assured that we are just as excited as ever to bring BlizzCon back in future years.

Over the next few months, we'll be sharing more details about our launches coming later this year, including World of Warcraft: The War Within and Diablo IV's first expansion, Vessel of Hatred. To celebrate these upcoming releases and to bring our communities together in new and special ways, we will soon share some exciting plans for other industry trade shows and conventions like Gamescom. We can't wait to tell you more about those plans soon. We're also looking forward to the Overwatch Champions Series' stops at both Dreamhack Dallas and Dreamhack Stockholm. And we're thrilled to be planning multiple, global, in-person events to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Warcraft, which will be held in addition to the in-game celebrations across our Warcraft games throughout 2024. While these events are distinct from BlizzCon, we're harnessing all of our creativity and imagination to ensure that they carry the same spirit of celebration and togetherness.

Our hope is that these experiences – alongside several live-streamed industry events where we'll keep you up to date with what's happening in our game universes – will capture the essence of what makes the Blizzard community so special.

No matter how you choose to connect with us at these events this year – whether it be in person or virtually – we can't wait to see you there!

My guess that it's a combination of low interest, having nothing to show, and microsoft not liking live events, even though it's the 20th anniversary of WoW. I haven't been excited for a Blizzard release since Overwatch anyway. :marseyshrug:

Does blizzard even have “fans” anymore? Even people still playing WoW and Overwatch seem to hate blizzard so I can't imagine them spending time/money to fly out to some convention

There's people who've been playing WoW for 20 years and always go to BlizzCon. I know a few of them they don't even like other video games it's weird.

Disneyfats actually enjoy the slop they're being served, WoWboomers hate the game and only play because of sunk cost.

I used to play with a guy like that but he married the Disney adult version of a Blizzard fangirl. They both exist.

I do find mmo people really weird since they literally do not follow any other videogame or bother trying anything new, they just want to slop up more of their mmo regardless of quality.

They make the furry ones sexy and thats the only thing left at this point.

Remember at the beginning of Shadowlands when that shitty Garrosh cutscene came out? The xir who made it went on Twitter to :marseyshrug: about xir's resource allocation for the job, and nobody seemed to notice or care that they were a furry porn commission artist. It's just background noise to them.

Blizzshitters are a cult who actually think Diablo and Starcraft are underappreciated gems. THEY DESERVE TO BE FEATURE FILMS!!! :soyjakwow:
