Warcraft Mobile MMO canceled

One of the projects announced earlier this year… the WoW mobile MMO in development has been canceled.

Thoughts?
Personally I don’t really care because I don’t play mobile games and in thankful for the collecting community saving them from terrible cross-overs.

I had not heard of this WoW mobile MMO set in another time period on Azeroth. But if they would have enabled PC cross-play like they did with D:I, I probably would have checked it out.

But I guess now we will never know.

Never heard of it.

honestly sounds like a fake leak considering they just launched DI and they have a different warcraft mobile game launching soonish.

if it was real then “oh no, what will we do without yet another mobile game!”

Never heard of a MMO for mobile? I know they had that weird WoW based battle game thing coming to mobile, but it isn’t an MMO.

Adventure Quest 3D is on mobile, actually. At least, I think it is.

Hopefully they have had enough negative backlash from Diablo Immortal to realize rolling out greed-driven filth is betraying our trust.

DI is a huge success for them.

they don’t need the general public to like it, they need the whales to.

That would be a shortsighted approach, sure.

Never heard of it and like others said, maybe a false leak. I don’t recall them posting jobs about that either like they have with all of the games including any new ones.

Good. Don’t need another Diablo immoral. :laughing:

There’s lots of things out there to prove it ain’t fake lol look it up.

Not sad to hear it go, but I am surprised. Love or hate it DI is apparently just raking in tons of cash so dunno why they would scrap a WoW version. But it would probably be for the best to never have to suffer it.

Good. It was going to be like Diablo Immortal with heavy microtransactions.

Probably cancelled because of the whole thing that happened in China. That one employee that costed the company hundreds of millions of dollars.

Aka worst employee in the world

You mean all that revenue pouring in?

You lost my attention at mobile

From my understanding NetEase MMOs are rarely worth playing, even those that aren’t mobile, so I’m not really surprised.

I’m not against the idea of a Warcraft mobile game… something like Genshin Impact which is a quasi-desktop single player game with online features that also runs on phones, but set in the Warcraft universe could be pretty cool as long as the cash shop features are relatively unintrusive and the pay2win aspect has a fairly low cap.

After Diablo:Immortal this is probably a good thing.

DAMN wtf blizzard

mmo mobile game sounds so cool this is just like when blizzard cancel their fps game -.-

blizzard is really dropping the ball like we could’ve had wow on console like thats million of players right there

Only if there is enough whales to compete with each other. Read an article that a whale who spent a tremendous amount of money can’t PvP because he paid all the money to deck out his character and now his matchmaking takes forever and some days he doesn’t get any matches at all.

Even if they fix this so that the whales get in lower rated matches all it will do is drive away regular players who are getting curb stomped by the whales.
