MOBAs like Heroes of the Storm<\/em>, League of Legends<\/em> and Dota 2<\/em>; World of Warcraft<\/em> and, as a result, virtually every MMORPG ever, and even the FPS Overwatch<\/em>, built on the assets of a follow up to the success of World of Warcraft<\/em>, all of these games are a legacy of Warcraft<\/em> \u2013 easily Blizzard\u2019s most successful franchise.<\/p>\n

If you add up all of the dough earned from the likes of Heroes of the Storm<\/em>, World of Warcraft<\/em> and Hearthstone<\/em>, you\u2019d see that what initially started out as battle between orcs and humans has evolved into something so much more.<\/p>\n

But what about good ol\u2019 Warcraft<\/em>? Will we ever see a follow up to our beloved Warcraft 3<\/em>? We just might, if Blizzard has anything to say about it.<\/p>\n

Speaking to IGN<\/a> at Gamescom 2015, Tim Morten, StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void\u2019s<\/em> lead producer, casually hinted at the possibility of a new Warcraft<\/em> \u2013 we\u2019re talking Warcraft 4<\/em> ladies and gents.<\/p>\n

Morten was talking about the potential for a StarCraft III<\/em> but pointed out that there are a lot more avenues for Blizzard to explore.<\/p>\n

“This isn\u2019t the end of StarCraft, but it\u2019s the end of this story for these characters,<\/em>” he said. “We don\u2019t have any specific plans, but I\u2019ll say that the universe has so much potential for more stories, clearly other stories could be told.<\/em>\u201d And then, rather unexpectedly, Morten went on to say:<\/p>\n

It\u2019s very rewarding for us to hear that there\u2019s demand out there for more RTS content in the Warcraft<\/em> universe so once we\u2019re done with Void I think we\u2019ll get together as a team and talk about what would inspire us to work on next. There\u2019s no question, though, that we\u2019ll consider Warcraft<\/em>, StarCraft<\/em>, or even new ideas. Anything is possible.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019s far from an official confirmation of any kind, it\u2019s hardly more than one man\u2019s opinion. But Blizzard consists of some smart individuals, individuals who are all too aware of the community\u2019s desire for a new RTS Warcraft<\/em>.<\/p>\n
