Blizzard "confirms" development on next-gen MMO
Category: PC, Posted: 12/12/2007 at 05:11PM CST by Billy Wang, Previews Editor
So we've heard about it over and over that Blizzard is working on something secret. During the past month or two, job positions were posted specifically looking for helpers on a next-generation MMO but of course, they're labeled as top secret.
Well, to add more fuel to the fire, Blizzard employee and community representative Drysc confirmed on the World of Warcraft forums that Blizzard is working on a next-generation MMO, but it doesn't have to do with World of Warcraft.
So how about that, Blizzard is working on a next-gen MMO, so what could it be? I'm still waiting for Diablo III and/or World of Diablo.

Well this isn't new news at all, like you said it has been speculated over and over, and the hob positions obviously asked for MMO developers.
In terms of what it could be, definitely NOT Starcraft because there is no need, especially with SC2 coming out.
World of Diablo definitely seems possible, because we haven't heard anything come out of blizzard in terms of anything Diablo. Somehow i doubt it will be a brand new IP. Now if they make a World of Diablo, will they keep the M rating? They better...
WOrld of diablo, now that would be interesting, a gothic murderous MMO. hmmmmmm.
How 'bout World of STARCRAFT!!!
That'd be pretty cool!
Diablo 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I want Diablo 3, not another MMO. But, I'll settle, and only if I can scrape up the money to afford it!
World of Diablo might be interesting ....does anyone who worked on Diablo or Diablo 2 even work at blizzovision anymore?
World of Call of Duty
World of GTFO Jambo.
A Diablo MMO could be pretty sweet to be honest.
You guys can't rule out SC MMO, because they just releasing SC2, they were making WoW when they were Just releasing WC3. For all yo know they set up SC2 so that way it ends up as a MMO starter.
Im sick and tired of magic and knights and stuff, i want to see zergs up close... and then shoot them in the face.
I say SC MMO is the way to go
I'm actually wondering what the hell a "next generation" MMO is supposed to be?
