We're just a few days shy of being a month from Blizzard's Blizzcon 2016 and we weren't left with much to look forward to. Aside from the drawn out, and poorley planned, Sombra reveal for Overwatch, the most dissapointing news had to deal with Blizzards stable dungeoun crawler, Diablo 3. Despite rumors surfacing that Blizzard might be ready to announce Diablo 4, we found out quickly that the apperance of a sequel isn't coming this year or probably anytime soon. Instead, as optional (and paid) DLC, gamers will be able to use the iconic Diablo 2 class hero, the Necromancer, which appears to be laregly the same as the original, just transposed into a new title. It was also dissapointing news that we won't be getting any DLC in the way of of a new story addition, but instead, an expansion that will allow gamers to play the original diablo maps in Diablo 3. While we can't be sure if Blizzard has more up their sleeves for us, it's certainly looking like they're beginning to nail this coffin shut on Diablo 3. In an attempt to get more gamers to play their "league of legends" clone, Heroes of the Storm, Overwatch offered a limited edition skin with the stipulation that gamers play 15 games with a friend, and the popular online card game, Hearthestone, is receiving another update. What we do know is that gamers have been scrambling for any sort of hint at an upcoming title and it was recently reported that Blizzard has begun seeking employees for an untitled first-person project. So, in the theme of 2016, Blizzcon was a let down but hopefully, we will see more coming from the much beloved gaming company.
