BlizzCon Returns in September 2026, Blizzard Pronounces Players Area

Blizzard has introduced the return of its BlizzCon gaming present, however there is a catch: the present is not coming again till September 2026, which suggests it’s going to have skipped two years in a row for the primary time in its historical past.

In an announcement put up, Blizzard reveals that the conference will likely be returning to Anaheim, CA on September twelfth and thirteenth subsequent 12 months. Naturally, tickets aren’t on sale but, however you possibly can already join updates through the official web site.

Blizzard would not reveal what will likely be showing at 2026’s BlizzCon, however the studio does say the occasion is “considered one of [its] favourite traditions” and that it is planning to construct the following BlizzCon “with a deep dedication to [its] gamers”.

Whereas no specifics are revealed, Blizzard does say you possibly can anticipate the return of “BlizzCon staples like Opening Ceremony, in-depth panels, the Darkmoon Faire, pleasant competitors, hands-on gameplay, and extra”.

If I needed to guess, I might say we’ll most likely get a reveal for the following World of Warcraft growth that may represent the second chapter of inventive lead Chris Metzen’s Worldsoul Saga trilogy, after 2024’s The Battle Inside kicked issues off in that regard.

Assuming it hasn’t already been revealed, we can also get some extra details about the following Diablo 4 growth, which Blizzard has already confirmed will not be coming till 2026, making BlizzCon the proper place to disclose it.

In fact, I can not predict what else Blizzard will announce through the occasion, however I feel these two guesses are secure bets. You’ll be able to see the announcement trailer for BlizzCon 2026, which is not significantly lengthy or informative, right here.

Provided that tickets aren’t but on sale for BlizzCon 2026, we do not know a lot they will price, however you possibly can most likely anticipate to pay a number of hundred {dollars} for the privilege of attending. Keep tuned for extra.
