Blizzard Announces New IP, Hearthstone Expansion, and More at BlizzCon 2014

The fine folks over at Blizzard delivered quite a number of major announcements today at BlizzCon 2014, chief among which being a brand-new IP called Overwatch.

The game is a team-based shooter that pits one team of six against another team of the same size. Additionally, Overwatch sports a gorgeous art style that is undeniably reminiscent of a Pixar film. Check out the stunning trailer below and feel free to gawk at its charming aesthetic.

A beta is coming next year. You can sign up for it here.

But that's not all the company had to announce during the convention, as a new expansion for Hearthstone was unveiled as well. It's called Goblins Vs. Gnomes and serves up a whole bunch of new cards that add an explosive element to the popular free-to-play game.

StarCraft fans got some much needed attention as well, as Blizzard revealed that StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void will be a standalone game that introduces a new mode combining cooperative and PVP elements. For additional details, check out the trailer below.

No release date has been announced for Legacy of the Void yet, but you can sign up to get in on the beta right here.
