We talked about how we put it through a reevaluation period, and actually, what we reevaluated is whether that's the game we really wanted to be making.

BlizzCon loot explosion! It’s time to take a sneak peek at this year’s BlizzCon in-game goodies for World of Warcraft, StarCraft II, Diablo III*, Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft, and the upcoming Heroes of the Storm**—they’re yours whether you’re attending the show in person or watching from home with the Virtual Ticket.

World of Warcraft – Grommloc Pet
Watch your foes flee in terror before this delightfully dreadful baby murloc masquerading as Grommash Hellscream, legendary leader of the Warsong clan.

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft – Blizzard 2014 Card Back
Infuse your deck with Blizzard spirit by equipping this commemorative card back, forged to resemble the compass design emblazoned in Blizzard’s courtyard.

StarCraft II – Portraits & Decal
Deck out your profile with a pair of portraits, including Hierarch Artanis and another to-be-revealed icon, and prep your army for battle across multiple universes with a Heroes of the Storm–themed decal.

Diablo III – Warlords of Draenor Weapon Transmogrifications
Outfit your heroes with six weapon transmogrification appearances inspired by World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor—one for each of Diablo III: Reaper of Souls’ classes.

Heroes of the Storm – Nexus Mount and Portrait
Rush into the storm atop the ethereal Nexus Charger, and embrace the unknown with the mysterious Nexus Brawler portrait.

This year’s epic collection of in-game goodies will be available to use after BlizzCon begins. Head to the BlizzCon Virtual Ticket page to order or learn more.

*Diablo III content for Windows/Mac version only.

**Heroes of the Storm content will be available once you get access to the game; note that ordering a Virtual Ticket does not guarantee a spot in the alpha or beta tests.

Comment by NatePsy93Awesome rewards O.OComment by OvaldoYay finally a Diablo 3 item that doesn't take space in your inventory or in the (imo) less used banner, shame they couldn't retroactively do the same for all other stuff.Comment by mathiaslindbergWhat's usually the point of BlizzCon? Just competitions and panels? A little expensive for a card back and a mount in a game we can't play :D

Not expecting anything new revealed, so..Comment by kragthangGrommloc is such a cutie. The more I look at him the more I want to have him now. I just hope he doesn't make any disturbing noises like the space murloc. Can't stand that one, even though he is also kind of cute.
I'm a bit disappointed about the HS card back. I was hoping for a fun card like we got last year.
Can't say anything about the other goodies, since I don't play any of those games atm.Comment by SaintStryfeI'm not shocked about Titan. It has always felt like some obligation, "BLizz must release a next gen MMO or they'll be swept away by Conan/LOTRO/FFXIV/Wildstorm/ect", when they're quite happy working WoW and developing projects they like, Hearthstone for instance. After 10 years, the players are still here. A lot of them won't be going anywhere. Unless they get an idea that truly hits them like Hearthstone did, I don't know if there's a need for it.

I do hope some of the expertise they gained via the project might go toward a reworked WoW engine. I'd be nice to not have a new game, but a complete work of the engine to modern specs and tech, using our characters. Everything Cata should have been.Comment by Manvictusso that mount isnt in wow ? reallyComment by agaderI had the same thought..i would have no use for most of this stuff..i play wow ..none of the other games so the pet would be the only thing i would end up withComment by solimyrwell there is the movie trailer that they must show (hopefully), alot of draenor stuff, maybe some Heroes of the Storm, the new SC2 expansion set, or DLC, what ever they call it... not big important WoW things, but Blizzcon is for Blizzard stuff.Comment by RankkorRegarding the cancellation of Titan, I hate to say "I told you so" (Actually, no I don't :P) but I TOLD YOU SO!!!!

:P

Facts don't lie. When they put a project "on ice" it just means its never going to see the light of day. In the entire history of this company they've never pulled back a project only to bring it back again at a later time. They announce the game, and then the game is either released (Warcraft 1 2 and 3, wow, starcraft 1 and 2, Diablo 1 2 and 3) or its not (Warcraft: Adventures, Starcraft: Ghost, Titan)

There is no "we'll see". Its either out, or its scrapped.Comment by ZigrifidSo the price of virtual ticket is? i might buy one just to see what its like .Comment by WishbladeExcited for new stuff and BlizzCon. Curious to see the last portrait, but it's probably something related to Legacy of the Void, so not gonna care much in the end. :PComment by klavier285Since it's cancelled can they tell us what exactly Titan was about?Comment by MitaicnuSo sad to hear about Titan but was kinda expecting it. I have never seen a game this long in production with almost zero information being put out at all.

The virtual goodies are very nice but I am interested in what the blizzcon store will be offering this year, hopefully something I will be willing to pay money for. Though I am sad to hear about the cancellation of the WoW line with Megabloks, maybe there will be a new Lego line, (crosses fingers).Comment by draenenexcept there already IS a Legacy of the Void character portrait in the goodie bag, unobfuscated. It's possible it's a lore figure or something they're keeping under wraps, but I would bet on an announcement of the next WoW expansion.Comment by SoCalWoWGalSo the price of virtual ticket is? i might buy one just to see what its like .BlizzCon® 2014 Virtual TicketComment by RomanthonyHmm those Sc2 portraits make me think that the big announcement its gonna be legacy of the void.Comment by IceveiledSo sad to hear about Titan but was kinda expecting it. I have never seen a game this long in production with almost zero information being put out at all..Comment by sickhammerthat second portrait might hint for Legacy of the Void or something we don't expect, i'm excited for BlizzCon this year... most of the people think they won't have anything important to show but i must disagree on that.Comment by InterestRegarding the cancellation of Titan, I hate to say "I told you so" (Actually, no I don't :P) but I TOLD YOU SO!
