We don’t know much about the AAA project yet – a bunch of top people from Blizzard have reportedly moved over in recent months. But we know a bit more about the mobile game: Blizzard’s new mobile game will probably take place in the Warcraft universe.
A new employee for the mobile game must have a passion for Warcraft
They need to have various qualities: They should be good with colors, texture, shape, and timing, be proficient in common programs, be able to self-motivate, have a lot of experience and a keen eye for detail. The usual.
One thing is unusual and gives a hint of what Blizzard is planning: The candidate should passionately know images that stand for the Warcraft brand.
They must know the Warcraft style: “Huge shoulder armor,” martial fights in slow motion, panda bears with alcohol problems.
A lot of potential for a mobile Warcraft
What exactly Blizzard is working on is still unknown. With “Hearthstone,” Blizzard already has a mobile hit.
A successful title like “Marvel Future Fight” could very well feature Warcraft heroes. In this game, also by Netmarble, you can strengthen and develop superheroes and supervillains in many different ways while completing short missions in a click-and-kill style.
This could be done very well with a Warcraft look. You wouldn’t be beating up soldiers of Hydra or the Red Skull as Captain America or Iron Man, but skeletons and Kel’Thuzad. The Warcraft skin would surely make billions.
A Warcraft variant of “Clash of Clans” would also be quite conceivable, which would also rake in a lot of money.
In short: Warcraft + known mobile success formula = cash.
Maybe we will find out at one of the next BlizzCons which way Blizzard will ultimately decide.
