It seems as in almost every press release or Q&A session, Blizzard are questioned whether they want to revisit the console market. Michael Ryder, the Executive Managing Director of Blizzard Entertainment, told MCVuk.com that it is not totally ruled out.

Prior to the release of Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, Blizzard shipped out numerous successful console titles, The Lost Vikings, Rock 'N' Roll Racing and Blackthorne to mention three.

- "Our heritage actually goes back to console,” Blizzard Entertainment’s VP and executive MD of internal operations Michael Ryder told MCV.

- "In the early years Blizzard made console games. It’s not the heritage, it’s the design decisions and what we think is best for our players.

"In the more recent years it has been PC and online orientated. But we play all kinds of games at Blizzard. We try to learn wherever we can. We play console games and we are up-to-speed on the console platforms. And if we see an opportunity where the game design would work well on the console, then maybe we will go that way. We just haven’t announced anything yet."
