Blizzcon 2018: Best-of-Video, Programm und Blizzard Infografik

Auch wenn die BlizzCon 2018 noch ein wenig hin ist, hat Blizzard nun einen ausführlichen Artikel zur hauseignen Spielemesse im November veröffentlicht. In dieser gibt es eine lange Infografik zu Blizzards Spielen zu finden, die wirklich interessante Details enthält. Zum Beispiel senden Spieler jeden Tag 30 Millionen Chatnachrichten über das Battle.net. An der BlizzCon im letzten Jahr haben über 35.000 Besucher teilgenommen, was einen neuen Rekord darstellt. Und der Haupt-LED-Bildschirm in der Overwatch-Arena wiegt so viel wie ein Elefant. Weitere coole Infos findet ihr im offiziellen Beitrag. Für die Infografik müsst ihr den Original-Beitrag besuchen.

Des Weiteren wurde schon ein grober Zeitplan für die BlizzCon 2018 veröffentlicht.

Blizzcon Season kicks off with "Best of Blizzcon" Videos, Programming Reveals and a Bonus Blizzard Infographic

Every BlizzCon is a piece of Blizzard Entertainment history. It’s a unique opportunity for us at Blizzard to geek out about our shared passion for games with our community and reveal what we’ve been working on with everyone. It’s also where our community comes to experience and help create unforgettable moments that last a lifetime.

This year, we’re kicking off BlizzCon season with a few firsts. We’ve created the “Blizzard Community Spotlight 2018” infographic, highlighting stats and fun facts about our players and what they do in and outside of our games, and with a few eye-popping facts about what goes into making BlizzCon a spectacle. We’ve also created a video campaign that lets all of you relive and vote on your favorite moments from BlizzCons past.

Then of course there’s this upcoming BlizzCon, which everyone will be able to follow via Virtual Ticket. Today, we’re giving the first glimpse of what’s to come when BlizzCon and Virtual Ticket 2018 programming kicks off in three weeks with the “BlizzCon All-Access Kick-Off Show.” Jump to the “Save the Dates” section at the bottom if you can’t wait to see what’s coming up.

It’s only fitting to start the festivities for our 12^th BlizzCon, taking place this November 2–3, by giving you a chance to relive the most unforgettable moments from the show and vote on your all-time “Best of BlizzCon.”

Whether you were there in person, watched it online, or heard about it, every BlizzCon has its share of surprises and delights. These have been from announcements and surprises during our opening ceremony, from cameos from our favorite personalities, from epic esports moments. We’re trying to unearth the most memorable moments from all these categories, and then see what you decide are the best of all time.

We’ll be releasing new “Best of BlizzCon” videos from four different categories every two weeks, and you can vote on your favorite from each.
