World of Warcraft developer Blizzard Entertainment is making a new survival game for PC and consoles.
On Tuesday, Blizzard made the announcement that it’s working on a survival game. In a statement on the company’s website, Blizzard clarifies that this project is set in an original universe — so no Diablo or Overwatch callbacks here.
“We are going on a journey to a whole new universe, home to a brand-new survival game for PC and console,” Blizzard said. “A place full of heroes we have yet to meet, stories yet to be told, and adventures yet to be lived. A vast realm of possibility, waiting to be explored.”
All we have to go on is two pieces of artwork, which you can check out below.

The announcement is mostly a hiring call, meaning that whatever this game is, we likely won’t hear more about it for many years to come.
Last week, Microsoft bought Activision Blizzard for $68.7 billion, meaning that this project is now part of Xbox’s first-party lineup. It’s unclear if the came will come to PlayStation, but Microsoft’s head of gaming said “some” Activision Blizzard titles will still release on PS5.
