Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick reveals that the upcoming massively multiplayer project will appeal to a broader audience. What's broader than having 11 million players and totally dominating the online gaming battlefield was not revealed.GameSpot asked Bobby Kotick at a technology conference, and he was to have said: "What we've announced at Blizzard is that we have StarCraft coming, Diablo has been in production... and a new, unannounced MMO that has a little more broad appeal."
Not much is known regarding the new MMO, aside that it will be a different massively multiplayer experience and a brand new franchise. With that information in hand, it leaves out a World of WarCraft competitor and an MMO based on StarCraft.
Could we interpret Kotick's comment to mean the new game will be lifted outside the traditional fantasy world in most MMORPG genres and be not as time consuming and complex as World of WarCraft?
