In a couple of months, Blizzard will be hosting their annual gaming expo BlizzCon in which Blizzard typically announces new games, updates to existing ones, and so on. This year’s BlizzCon is expected to take place from the 3rd-4th of November and if you aren’t able to attend in person, not to worry as the virtual tickets are now on sale.
In case the name wasn’t already obvious, the virtual tickets to BlizzCon allows gamers to “attend” the event virtually. According to Blizzard, “the Virtual Ticket unlocks live access to all the stages at BlizzCon 2017—and in addition to the game updates, developer discussions, and community contests you’ve come to enjoy, you’ll also get access to events featuring community creators, voice actors, and more.”
The virtual ticket is priced at $40 which isn’t exactly cheap, but if you’re a fan of Blizzard’s games and want to learn more about what’s new and what’s changing live, then perhaps its cost can be justified. Also there will be freebies given with the virtual ticket that comes in the form of exclusive in-game items for the various Blizzard games.
For World of Warcraft gamers, this means that they’ll be able to access special mounts like the Stormwind Skychaser (for Alliance) and the Orgrimmar Interceptor (for Horde), and of course there will be content for Overwatch, Hearthstone, StarCraft 2, Diablo 3, and Heroes of the Storm as well. Gamers who are interested can purchase the ticket via Blizzard’s online store.
