Blizzard Entertainment: optimistic about the metaverse chain tour track, and will launch the metaverse chain tour products


As one of the world's three major game companies, we have a brilliant history in the game industry, and continue to create an incomparable game world for many players.From its inception on February 8,1991, by three UCLA graduates, Michael Morhaime, Allen Adham, and Frank Pearce, under the name of Silicon & Synapse, until the brand was officially renamed "Blizzard" in 1994.Over the years, we have ve launched many classic collections, including Warcraft, Starcraft, Diablo, World of Warcraft, Hearthstone, Hero of the Storm, and Overwatch.Among them, Warcraft, Starcraft and Hero of the Storm series are listed as the major projects of many famous e-sports competitions and received many praised in the industry.

In fact, we are the leader in the field of games, from the sector of gaming to mobile gaming till the future chain gaming, we have witnessed the development of the game industry.As the vice president of Blizzard Group, I believe we have deep precipitation and rich gaming experience, we leads in the new node of a new era to grasp the whole direction.

Recently, the concept of the metaverse is really too hot, the platform rises again and again, up more than 30% in three days, leaders like Tencent, Facebook are actually already laying out the metaverse, Mark Zuckerberg also said in an interview will use the next five years to build FACEBOOK into a metaverse company.Many members of our group are studying the development of the metaverse, and I am personally optimistic about the metaverse Gamefi track.The Meta universe is the future development trend of combining the real world and the virtual world. In the future, the virtual Meta universe can affect the real world. Currently, Gamefi is the trend, because chain gaming have the characteristics of meeting entertainment needs, and high scalability between the flow of industry chain.From the perspective of the development of the digital world, in the past few years: the popularization of intelligent terminals, the rise of e-commerce / short video / games and other applications, the improvement of 5G semiconductor infrastructure, and the germination of the sharing economy are all the prelude to the realization of the metaverse.In recent years, due to the impact of the epidemic, more people have been willing to be immersed in the Internet world and become more open and recognized to the needs and services of the virtual world.With the development of VR / AR, 5G, AI and other technologies, the metacoverse is entering people's lives, and gradually becoming an all-inclusive future ecology.

Under the upsurge of chain games, we have no longer simply focused on traditional games, but shifted our attention to the chain game field.After many group internal discussions, Blizzard decided to enter the field of metaverse game, actively promote the game chain GameFi ecology into the positive cycle, the next step will launch five metaverse chain game products projects, we hope to bring the best epic game experience for players around the world, and create greater value for players.

The philosophy we hold is committed to creating the best epic entertainment experience ever made.So the first chain game will start with StarCraft, once an epic competitive masterpiece, describing the three races in the center of the Milky Way competing for hegemony in the early 26th century.The three races are: people of descent (Terran), a rapidly evolving group of insects (Zerg), and an ancient ethnic god of high civilization and spiritual power (Protoss).StarCraft was a once a favorite game for players around the world. Now Blizzard will now chain StarCraft, build it into an IPFS distributed storage and a decentralized game to highlight the value of IPFS distributed storage in the metaverse.

The core of the new starcraft is through blockchain technology through the bridge between the real world and virtual world "assets" exchange, at the same time using NFT technology for virtual assets confirmation, ensure its unique inseparable and replication characteristics, let its value in the parallel world has infinite imagination space.

We believe that all great things are built on a solid foundation, in building chain swim content, we will be full of blood, maximize the senses meet all the sensory immersion, and with epic plot, exciting play caused the boom of global players, we hope through the game to a larger user market, is expected to attract hundreds of millions of players!No matter who or where you are, whether you're a member of the thriving gaming community, or a hot-blooded player who brings part of Blizzard to the universe, Blizzard will always be with you!
