BlizzCon

Blizzard has announced that BlizzCon 2026 tickets will go on sale in two batches: early bird passes from November 7, 2025 for $249.99 USD — which have already sold out — and then standard passes will go on sale November 18, 2025 for $289.99 USD.

We knew BlizzCon 2026 was coming, but now we know when we'll be able to buy tickets: November 18, 2025 at 9am pacific (12pm eastern), for $289.99 each.

The countdown to the return on BlizzCon has now crossed the one-year mark, which gives us plenty of time to reflect on the possibility of trying to attend one of the most prestigious gathering of awesome nerds in the known universe.

I'll be 100% honest: I thought BlizzCon was dead.

After BlizzCon 2024 was canceled, we wondered if we would ever see another BlizzCon.

The first raid in the current World of Warcraft expansion, The War Within, is the Nerub-ar Palace, and it's opening September 10.

BlizzCon 2024, the first BlizzCon that would've occurred since Microsoft's acquisition of Activision-Blizzard was approved by the FTC, has been cancelled.

2024 keeps chugging ahead and we're already more than a quarter of the year through.

Last week's layoffs and the concurrent cancellation of the Untitled Survival Game left an early black mark on Blizzard's fortunes in 2024.

Announced during BlizzCon 2023, the Abattoir of Zir is a new, themed endgame event for Diablo 4 Season 2, described as a "grueling test" to provide an additional challenge for endgame players.
