For Blizzard, the news that World of Warcraft appears to be dying would once have been devastating- not too many decades before wow classic gold, the company was entirely reliant on World of Warcraft, having released no other new product for almost half a decade. However, today, Blizzard has been able to return to some of its other classic franchises efficiently, while also having launched a few exceptionally popular new IPs in Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm.

So it is reasonable that in spite of World of Warcraft's subscriber numbers using reached their lowest point in a decade -- we're now at 5.6 million subscribers, in spite of the launch of Warlords of Draenor under a year ago -- Blizzard still needed a strong showing, with revenues being up year on year.A great deal of this has to do with Diablo 3, which has sold over 30 million units worldwide- for a match that was panned as widely as Diablo 3 was at launch, that's a hell of a comeback. The launch of the Reaper of Souls growth was surely crucial in staging the turnaround for this particular game.Meanwhile, Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm are doing good for Blizzard too, and if Overwatch launches later this season in beta, which is sure to combine Blizzard's growing list of successful products as well.

Blizzard Entertainment will likely be among three publishers together with EA and Microsoft to hold a press event at Gamescom next week and it seems to have something big planned. A recent Battle.net post has revealed a new expansion for World of Warcraft will be declared on August 6th. The announcement will probably be live-streamed so you can check it out at 9 AM PST/1 PM EST/6 PM UK time . It also seems that there will be a developer talk to the staff behind WoW on August 9th at 8 AM PST, therefore there is an opportunity of more information being revealed.

A current trademark listing suggested that another expansion could be known as"Council of Glades". World of Warcraft already received a rather considerable expansion in November 2014 with Warlords of Draenor to buy wow gold classic. It is likely that this next expansion arrives some time next year. We are going to have to wait for more information from Blizzard next week so stay tuned.Blizzard Entertainment have announced their decade old and genre setting pioneering MMORPG, World of Warcraft, will be getting a'Mercenary Mode' for the player versus player combat, which will let players switch factions.
