Blizzard confirms BlizzCon digital event for early 2021

At Activision’s second-quarter earnings call earlier today, the company confirmed a BlizzCon virtual event for early 2021.

“We are planning on channeling the spirit of BlizzCon into a virtual event in the early part of next year,” said Blizzard President J. Allen Brack. “We’re really fortunate to have a passionate and engaged community that’s really looking forward to what we’re creating and what we’re working on. And we’re looking forward to sharing what the teams have been working on for that event.”

Blizzard already has experience with virtual events. For people who were unable to attend BlizzCon 2019 in person, Blizzard sold virtual tickets for $50 each. It featured everything people expects as conventions such as access to panels, contests, gaming competitions and more.
