BlizzCon 2020 was one of the many victims of COVID, and rather than simply taking place online, the studio has preferred to postpone it to a more suitable date; not so much for the health issue, but to accumulate advertisements and demonstrations. At least, that’s our interpretation.
The official Blizzard blog was recently updated with information on how the event will unfold online, renamed BlizzConline. This time it will be completely free, in contrast to the expensive tickets that you always had to pay to experience the event in person.
It can be followed from Friday, February 19 at 11 p.m. (Spanish peninsular time) in the BlizzCon website, among other platforms. Subsequently, several channels will be available with segments dedicated to Blizzard games. It looks like Diablo IV will be the center of attention this year.
BlizzConline Program
- Inauguration on Friday, February 19 at 11 pm with the traditional ceremony.
- During 3 hours, you can follow 6 six thematic channels focused on each of the different games.
- The second day resumes on Saturday, February 20 at 9:00 p.m., once again on various channels. The schedule will end overnight, but the time has not been specified.
- If you missed something or want to watch an event again, don’t worry, everything will be available on the channel a little later.
- All of this content will be available live or on video on demand with subtitles in 12 languages, including English, French, Spanish, German, etc.
- The detailed program of presentations and events will be published the week before the event.

Also during this month of February Blizzard celebrates its 30th anniversary, the Commemorative Collection The 30th Anniversary offers many virtual gifts in the various games in the studio, as well as new physical items in the Blizzard Gear Store, like the huge and presumptuous Helmet of the Lich King.
