Blizzard said that it is not known whether BlizzCon 2020 is feasible

Blizzard is not sure whether to host BlizzCon 2020 this year, because at this time it is too early to "now do not know whether it is feasible".

Blizzard publicly thanked fans on the official website (thanks Massively), saying that earlier this year, Blizzard began actively working on finalizing BlizzCon 2020 this fall.

However, in the case of the COVID-19 pandemic, the studio began to pay attention to whether to continue to implement its plan.

Although we all hope that the situation will improve later this year, the most important thing is that it is too early to see whether BlizzCon 2020 is feasible. Our primary consideration is the health of the community, employees and everyone who helps the show. It may take us a few months to determine whether to proceed or how to proceed, but once there is a meaningful update, we will share it.

We do want to mention that before the recent event, although we have made a workplace change at Blizzard, we have been actively working to complete our plan and are actually still doing so. This includes considering various scenarios and possibilities, not only in terms of performance, but also in considering what your experience is for you. We know that BlizzCon also involves your preparation, so we will do our best to provide as much clarity as possible.

Now, gaming conventions may be the last thing most people think of, as do many people at Blizzard. With the global event announced to be cancelled, postponed or converted to an online format in response to COVID-19, we have questions about our BlizzCon plan for this year, and we hope to provide a quick update.

We love BlizzCon, and we know that many of you share this feeling and look forward to it as an opportunity for us to leave for a while, meet friends and have a good time. Since many of us have been quarantined for several weeks, surrounded by pandemic-related challenges around the world and directly affected in some cases, we look forward to something we can meet face to face again and have the opportunity to celebrate together .

If BlizzCon 2020 goes according to plan, we fully hope to hear more about "Diablo 4", "Overwatch 2" updates to "World of Warcraft" and the developer's support for other intellectual property rights.
