BlizzCon 2016 saw a new character reveal for Overwatch, Diablo 3 getting The Darkening of Tristram event, and Hearthstone seeing a new expansion. BlizzCon 2017 should see more around Overwatch and Hearthstone, with perhaps more information around the company’s e-sports plans for both games.

There have been rumours of Blizzard working on a new mobile game and a new first-person shooter according to job listings spotted on the company website. Furthermore, the company has filed a trademark application for Battle of Azeroth via the New Zealand Intellectual Property Office. Given that New Zealand is a popular market for smartphone game makers to test their games before rolling them out worldwide, there is an outside chance that this could be Blizzard’s new mobile game based on the Warcraft universe.

Disclosure: Blizzard sponsored the correspondent's flights and hotel for BlizzCon 2017.
