Diablo 3 expansion and HotS launch

Blizzard has confirmed that Diablo III will receive an expansion. During an earnings call for the third quarter of Activision Blizzard’s current fiscal year, Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime said that an expansion is planned, but no timeline is in place just yet for when it might be released. Morhaime noted that the quality of the expansion and its gameplay is the top priority, and both will be a “big factor” in driving the actual schedule of the release.

Activision Blizzard also mentioned that more than 10 million copies of Diablo III have been sold to date. Activision CEO Bobby Kotick referred to “Blizzard’s record-shattering Diablo III sales” as one of the primary drivers for earnings so far this year, with Activision noting in a statement that Diablo III is “the #1 bestselling game in dollars and units on the PC in the U.S. and Europe” since its release in May. Also in the call they mentioned that Starcraft 2 Heart of the Swarm will be released in spring 2013. We should expect an official date on HotS soon.

Uhg now what in the hell would I want with a Diablo III expansion? Who want to make a bet that the game only sells 1/4 half at best. The 1st game fell on its face.

U know we will both be playing it.
