What's up everybody this is Master Ian Gamer and Blizzcon 2017 is fast approaching us!
So today, I'm going to go over everything you need to know so that you don't miss
out on a minute of the event, and also mention what new things we can expect to see announced
this year.
Without further ado, let's jump on in.
First I'll go over the important dates and times.
The main event starts Friday, November 3rd at 11:00AM PDT.
This will be the Blizzcon opening ceremony, which is where Blizzard makes all their big
general announcements.
The reason why this is important for Overwatch fans is because last year at Blizzcon, this
is where Sombra and her animated short were first revealed.
This doesn't mean that something major pertaining to Overwatch will for sure get announced here
again, but you should try to watch it anyways just in case.
The other important time to tune in will be later on Friday at 2:45PM PDT for "Overwatch
- What's Next?"
Anything big that doesn't get announced during the Opening Ceremony will almost definitely
be announced here.
There will be a number of other Overwatch related events throughout the two main days
of the event, but I won't bother mentioning them all specifically because they won't
be as important for major new announcements.
Instead, you can peruse the schedule at your leisure via the link in the description below,
which will also list the events in your native timezone.
Unfortunately, I do believe you will need a virtual ticket to watch anything other than
the opening ceremony, including the "What's Next" portion.
So if you are interested in getting a virtual ticket, I will have a link to that in the
description as well.
Moving onto the actual new content we can expect to see at this year's Blizzcon, there
are a number of juicy things likely in store for us.
I'll go through these in order of what's most likely to get announced or shown, and
then move into the more speculative and wishful thinking end of things.
So to start, we have a new hero.
Now there has been some debate about whether or not this Blizzcon will in fact feature
a new hero, but if you saw my last video than I've already discussed why I'm convinced
we'll still get one.
If you haven't watched it already, I also go into who it could be and what role they'll
fill in the game, so be sure to check it out.
In short, based off of the four month hero release cycle and the fact that Blizzcon is
Blizzard's biggest event of the year, it's almost inevitable that someone new will at
least be revealed during this event.
As I mentioned before, the new hero will possibly be announced during the opening ceremony,
and if not then it will be during the "What's Next" event later on Friday.
The next major thing we will most likely be seeing at Blizzcon is a new animated short.
Given that the "Rise and Shine" Mei short released at this year's Gamescom officially
kicked off Season 2 of the cinematic shorts, we can expect to get some more at a fairly
steady and frequent pace for a while.
And just like with the the new hero, given how big of an event Blizzcon is, it will be
the perfect time to release one.
Additionally, this is almost definitely going to be revealed during the Opening Ceremony,
since it will of course be a big cinematic thing to show off.
As for who will be featured in this new short, well that's really anyone's guess.
It could be the new hero, just like it was last year with Sombra, but it may also be
someone else for all we know.
The last major thing that we'll pretty much definitely see at this year's Blizzcon is
more information regarding Overwatch League.
I haven't ever really talked about Overwatch League in my videos before, because to be
honest I'm not really that big a fan of eSports or competitive gaming.
I'm sure we've all seen the new team specific skins that have been periodically shown off
over the past month or so, but beyond that there's really not much more to go on.
It seems like Blizzard is really pushing hard for Overwatch League to be successful, so
we'll almost definitely be getting more info regarding it during this event.
Moving onto less specific things we'll see this year, we have Competitive and general
game balance or system changes.
In a way, this is basically inevitable.
I can't imagine that we'll go the entirety of Blizzcon without Jeff or some other developer
saying SOMETHING regarding upcoming Overwatch changes, the question really is just what
they will be.
There has been a lot of demand for changes to Competitive mode as well as Mercy and her
extreme presence in the game right now, but these are only a couple of the many prominent
topics people want to hear Blizzard address.
It's anyone's guess as for what will actually get discussed, so let's just hope there
are some nice improvements in store for us.
One specific thing we'll likely see are the new eSports spectator tools.
Jeff Kaplan recently mentioned these in a recent Developer Update video where he talked
about how much they've been working to get Overwatch working nice and smooth in the world
of competitive gaming.
I'll have a link to that dev video down in the description.
We may also get a new game mode announced, although I doubt we'll see one for the main
Quick Play and Competitive roster, and the Arcade already seems to be overwhelmed with
the number of modes it has to offer.
I don't find a new game mode to be particularly likely, nor does it feel particularly needed
or wanted right now.
So don't expect to hear much if anything regarding this idea.
Another thing that we may see announced is the next map, or at least a map of some kind.
Blizzcon 2016 revealed two maps, one being Ecopoint: Antarctica for the new Arcade mode,
and the other being the Control Map Oasis.
The latter didn't even show up on the PTR for a couple months after the event, but Blizzard
still took advantage of Blizzcon to reveal it and start building hype.
We may see a similar thing happen again this year for a map further down the line, although
it will likely depend on how much else they have to show off.
If there is enough other Overwatch related stuff to reveal and build hype for, they might
not bother adding whatever the next main map is to that list.
The last thing I want to suggest for this year's Blizzcon is a significant overhaul
to the system or at least new kinds of cosmetics.
Now, I've mentioned this a number of times in the past, and I swear one of these days
I'll get around to collecting all my thoughts on the matter and making a dedicated video
about it.
This isn't an issue I see being brought up very often, so others in the community
may not really agree with the importance I place on it.
But I think the cosmetics system as it stands has lots of room to be expanded and the way
it works currently doesn't favor the longevity of cosmetic progression.
While I really don't expect to see something like this announced or disclosed at Blizzcon,
I would love to see anything, even just the addition of new custom weapon skins, become
a feature of the game.
As a last little note, I will mention that I expect we'll have something unexpected
announced, so I'm excited to see which new things will catch us completely by surprise.
And that wraps up everything major we can expect to have announced at Blizzcon 2017.

I've got to get back to grinding the Halloween event now, because I've still got way too
many of those Legendary skins to unlock.
So until next time have a great day!
