How to Watch BlizzCon 2026 and What to Expect
Blizzard Entertainment will host BlizzCon 2026 this weekend (September 12-13) at the Anaheim Convention Center, delivering major announcements across its flagship franchises. The Opening Ceremony, starting at 10:30 a.m. PDT / 1:30 p.m. EDT, will feature the event’s most significant reveals and set the tone for the two-day showcase.
Attendees and viewers can expect updates and announcements for World of Warcraft, StarCraft, Overwatch, and Diablo. The event has already generated substantial anticipation in the gaming community, with persistent rumors suggesting a new StarCraft game is in development—a potential highlight that could mark a significant expansion of one of Blizzard’s most beloved franchises.
While the convention will host in-person attendance at the Anaheim venue, Blizzard is providing online viewing options for fans unable to attend physically. This hybrid approach ensures global audiences can participate in the announcements and events throughout the weekend. BlizzCon serves as Blizzard’s primary platform for direct communication with its fanbase, traditionally featuring gameplay reveals, developer panels, and exclusive first looks at upcoming projects.
