General: Blizzard Hints at New Game for PAX East

SBFord

Blizzard Entertainment has sent out invitations to PAX East attendees about "a little something different from our other games". According to the PR, it's not "a sequel, expansion, or that rumored next-gen MMO". What do you think it could be? Perhaps a mobile game? Leave us your thoughts in the comments.

Maybe a dota  type game.

Probably Diablo 3 on the PS3.  They announced it at the Sony PS$ announcement and I think they either said that it would be playable at PAX or E3.  Not sure which one off the top of my head.

I think Diablo 3 falls under the sequel category. Besides, this seems too important to be a repeat announcement.

or maybe finally titan?

wel... that would be not sooo different than other games.

Think you will find Titan is "that rumored next-gen MMO", which if you actually read, they have specifically said it is not.

Rob and I both are thinking Blizzard All-Stars.

Blizzard all stars or Diablo III for the new xbox since i"m sure Microsoft is not far behind on their announcement of next-gen system.

Like others have said, it's probably Diablo 3 on the PS3 (since Blizz said themselves that Diablo 3 for the PS3 would be available at PAX East)

EDIT: Reading it, well they do mention a little something different, well I hope it's their DOTA, I've been itching to try that out.

OgreRaper

Oh please not another DOTA game. Zzzz

Phaedread

Warcraft movie is my guess.

Purutzil

I'm betting on "Lost Pilgrims" a game of its own much like Lost Vikings!

FromHell

"Little something" sounds mobile (tablet or handheld console)

"Little something" can't be PS3 or PC

Not a sequel or expansion means, no WoW, no Diablo, no Starcraft content.

No next gen MMO means it's NOT Titan

You don't get "hands on" a movie, so it's NOT the Warcraft movie

 

SinsNotLies

Please let it be the Warcraft movie...

FromHell

some folks must be terribad at solving TSW investigation missions if they can't follow the clues in this little mystery note correctly ...

Diablo 3 did not turn out all that well. Not horrible, but definitely lacking the Blizzard magic. Just a warning to my Xbox and PS friends...

^ Project Blackstone is already confirmed to be a Starcraft: Heart of the Swarm marketing campaign....

you can go the official campaign site yourself and see, its just some story about Zerg....

My guess, since they already talked about showing a PS3/4 version of Diablo III, that the secret something will be a PS4 exclusive game set in a new world. There is no reason to believe that Blizzard's involvement with the Playstation consoles will be strictly limited to the Diablo franchise. 

Alternatively, there is the DOTA concept, or a casual-friendly mobile project, which I can easily imagine Blizzard doing very well with. 

Also, since it obviously isn't Titan, my guess is they are saving that for this year's Blizzcon or maybe even the next, depending on their prospective release timetables.

I hope its their dota thing.  I'd be happy to see Blizzard's take on a Moba.
