It's time for Blizzcon, the official event for everything Blizzard games! It's where upcoming releases are announced, competitive tournament matches are being fought, interviews are popping, art is being showcased, and many things are being broadcasted & streamed.​

The opening week started on October 26th. The following days featured major Blizzard eSports competitions on Hearthstone, Overwatch, WoW, and Starcraft 2. The opening ceremony, however, is on Friday, November 4, 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM GMT. Coverage will continue for hours on end, and ends at the end of Saturday.

You can watch the live streams on BlizzCon here on Hive! The channels below are from Blizzard's Blizzcon Twitch team.

Main channel:

Other channels:
Warcraft (Twitch.TV) | HIVE
StarCraft (Twitch.TV) | HIVE

What can we expect? In a nutshell, some are predicting some sort of Diablo series expansion or remake, new Overwatch and HotS heroes and maps, and a Hearthstone expansion. For PC Gamer's "wild unlikely guesses," Warcraft 4 is among them. PC Gamer: Blizzcon 2016 Predictions

Today's eSport streams start in 30 minutes and the opening ceremony in 2 hours and 30!

Also, I don't know why the news isn't showing on the front page despite me moving it out of submissions to the news forum. That explains the lack of exposure.

@Ralle @Archian maybe one of you guys can move it to the home page or look into the weird problem?

Doesn't look like it. Just Overwatch, Hearthstone, Legion... yadda yadda. Nothing new or exciting going on.

If this had happened I guess I'd have noticed the hype.

I didn't watch BlizzCon, but I spotted no enthusiasm whatsoever, so I assume nothing interesting came out of it?
