Gamescom 2024 kicks off today, and with E3 thoroughly out of the picture we're all looking to Germany for the latest gaming news.

After news broke this morning about the formation of a new agile team within Microsoft to produce AA-quality games using Blizzard's existing properties, naturally discussion immediately went to spitballing ideas of what exactly those games would be.

While there was a lot of discussion of what effect the Microsoft and Activision Blizzard merger might have on the games industry in the long term, there hadn't been a lot of visible effect outside of perhaps some effect on Diablo 4's launch.

World of Warcraft developers have banded together to form Blizzard's first union: the WoW Gamemaker's Guild, which is organized under the CWA (Communication Workers of America).

Back in November 2022, talks broke down between Blizzard and their publishing partner in China, Netease, leading to all of Blizzard's active services being suspended in the country as of January 2023.
