One of the game's most clever design choices is the integration of the developer/publisher's three behemoth franchises into the action. However, Blizzard's signature aesthetic, clever use of humor, and approachable format entices a sizable audience to give their entree a nibble, which inevitably leads to a second or third thousandth helping. Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft now effectively dominates the digital realm of the collectible card game genre Overwatch is gearing up to overtake the shooter battlefield and their current roster of Diablo, StarCraft, and World of Warcraft continue to reign supreme in the categories of action-RPG, real-time strategy, and MMO, respectively.īlizzard's entry into the MOBA arena, Heroes of the Storm, more or less reinvents the wheel already chiseled to smooth contours by the likes of League of Legends and Dota 2. Looking at their most recent endeavors, it would appear they are not only treading in new pools, but diving into the deep end with a giant murloc splash. The grand plans they surely salivate over. Oh, to be a fly on the wall at Blizzard Entertainment's strategy and design meetings.
