The last time we talked about Activision Blizzard was not related in any way to one of the popular franchises, such as Diablo or World of Warcraft, but to announce that it got bought by Microsoft.

Today, Blizzard Entertainment announced that it’s working on a new survival game that will be compatible with both consoles and PC.

However, the company didn’t reveal any further details, but the concept art focuses on a group of individuals that are transported into a mystical realm from a modern city.

Blizzard is embarking on our next quest. We are going on a journey to a whole new universe, home to a brand-new survival game for PC and console. A place full of heroes we have yet to meet, stories yet to be told, and adventures yet to be lived. A vast realm of possibility, waiting to be explored.

And, you might also like to know that Blizzard is currently looking at hiring developers for the project and said the following on its website.

Blizzard is looking for people to help materialize its vision

We all want to know more about it, but the truth is that this project is in its infancy and it may be a few years before we get a glimpse of what the title looks like, judging from Blizzard standards.

The positions that are open indicate that the company has the concept locked, but it searching for visual artists to build the game.

Nobody has any idea on what the title’s name will be, or if it will be an Xbox and PC exclusive. There is a pretty good chance that will happen, but we’ll just have to wait and see.

Note that everything that happens with this future survival game still depends on if and when the Microsoft – Blizzard deal goes through.

But, seeing how this new franchise is still years away, we can focus on Diablo 4, which was scheduled to be released at the end of 2021, with Overwatch 2, but will instead come in 2023.

However, if there’s something that Blizzard thought us throughout the years, is that all release dates are pretty much more of a guideline than an official deal.
