Attend Blizzcon From The Comfort Of Your Own Home This November
Blizzard has a good track record of making sure that fans who can’t make the trip to Anaheim, California for Blizzcon can still get in on the action. This year, you’ll be able to do so again thanks to the virtual ticket.
The Blizzcon virtual ticket gets you two channels of content streamed in HD (720p) via the Internet and DirecTV, including activities on both the main and panel stages. Those that purchase the $39.99 ticket will also get digital loot, including yet-to-be-detailed items for Starcraft II, World of Warcraft, Diablo III, Hearthstone, and Heroes of the Storm.
The event will include interviews with developers, the StarCraft II World Championship Series finals, the World of Warcraft Arena World Championship, and the Hearthstone World Championship. You’ll also be able to catch costume contests and the closing ceremonies via stream.
Those that can’t make the trip will have access during the show to purchase merchandise, before the public gets access after the event. Anyone attending Blizzcon in person will also get a single virtual ticket. Make sure you mug for the camera so your friend at home can see you enjoying the event in person (or use it for yourself in case you Blizzcon a little too hard one night and want to watch from your hotel room).
Blizzcon will be held on November 7 and 8 at the Anaheim Convention Center. For more information, visit the official website.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
