Activision expects six Blizzard releases

We all know Blizzard likes to take its sweet time with its games, making sure it crafts them to perfection before letting gamers even have a sniff, but it looks like it'll have to get a move on for a few years. Speaking at the Citi 2011 Technology Conference today, Activision Blizzard COO Thomas Tippl said Activision expects Blizzard to launch six major releases in the next three years. These releases include two expansions for World of Warcraft and two for Starcraft II. MMO and RTS fans can be excited, then. The other two releases pertain to Diablo III; first the actual bloody game, which fans have been waiting for since Werther's Originals were invented, and could be out this year with any luck. And the second a Diablo III expansion, which Tippl apparently expects out before the end of 2014 (but hopefully some time before the next ice age). Best get to work then, lads. Mike Jackson
