The highly anticipated Blizzard showcase hits the internet this year with the first BlizzConline, which will have many revelations for Diablo, Overwatch, World of Warcraft, StarCraft, Hearthstone and more.
Due to the global health crisis, Blizzard is investigating how they want fans to participate in the company’s 30-year existence and will make the entire offering available online for all to see for free.
This gives people a great deal of control over how they want to experience BlizzConline, especially since there will be different channels where fans can tune in to the streams of specific titles.
Blizzard has confirmed everything from which gaming universities we will hear, as well as the different schedules depending on what you want to follow, so check out our outline below.
BlizzConline 2021 dates
The online Blizzard celebration will take place during the weekend of February 19th and 20th. Each day there will be about four hours of coverage from start to finish.
However, there are going to be a bunch of panels and Q&A slots running at the same time that revolve around completely different titles.
BlizzConline 2021 streams
You can follow all six BlizzConline streams directly from the company’s own website, or on Twitch and YouTube, for people who want to experience the presentation with the communities.
