🚨 BLIZZCON 2026 — MEGA LEAK & RUMOR TRACKER


🚨 BLIZZCON 2026 — THE MEGA LEAK & RUMOR TRACKER 🚨

BlizzCon 2026 is almost here.

On September 12–13, Blizzard returns to Anaheim Convention Center for its first major BlizzCon since 2023 — and the closer we get, the more rumours, alleged leaks and insider claims are appearing online. (Blizzard News⁠)

But this year, we’re not treating every screenshot or anonymous post as fact.

We’re separating:

🟢 CONFIRMED


🟩 VERY LIKELY


🟡 POSSIBLE


🟠 QUESTIONABLE


🔴 LIKELY FAKE


🟣 WILD CARD

And we’ll give every major rumour a probability estimate.


🟢 1. WORLD OF WARCRAFT — WHAT’S NEXT?

CONFIRMED

World of Warcraft has multiple major appearances at BlizzCon, including World of Warcraft: What’s Next, plus a second WoW presentation on the official schedule. (BlizzCon⁠)

That alone makes WoW one of the safest bets for major announcements.

But what exactly is coming?

🔥 THE LAST TITAN

The biggest retail WoW question is obviously The Last Titan.

The community has already connected rumours about Northrend to the upcoming expansion.

An alleged leak specifically claimed:

“World of Warcraft: Exploring Northrend”

However, the leaked schedule itself has now been contradicted by Blizzard’s official schedule.

So:

Northrend / The Last Titan reveal

🎯 Probability: 65%

Not confirmed — but absolutely one of the most logical things Blizzard could show.


🟩 2. WORLD OF WARCRAFT CLASSIC+

This is arguably the biggest rumour surrounding BlizzCon 2026.

For years, players have wanted a version of Classic WoW that doesn’t simply continue through the original expansion timeline.

Now there are multiple pieces of community speculation surrounding a potential new Classic project.

One alleged internal codename repeatedly mentioned by the community is:

PROJECT CAMELOT

Some datamining and community reports have connected “Camelot” with the Classic branch, although Blizzard has never officially announced it as a product.

Meanwhile, Classic-focused creators have reportedly been involved in Blizzard-related activities under NDA, further fueling speculation. (Wowhead⁠)

And now there are even fresh community reports claiming that several creators were involved in a possible Classic+ demo showcase.

Nothing here is official.

But the amount of smoke is getting difficult to ignore.

🔥 Classic+ / new Classic experience

🎯 Probability: 75%

Confidence: Medium

Important: “Classic+” is a community term. Blizzard has not confirmed a product with that name. (Wowhead⁠)


🟨 3. “WARCRAFT FABLES”

This is one of the most interesting names from the alleged leak.

The anonymous schedule claimed:

Warcraft Fables — Deep Dive

The community immediately connected this to Classic+.

But there is a major problem:

The alleged schedule never actually says that Warcraft Fables = Classic+.

That connection was made by the community.

The name itself remains unconfirmed.

🎯 Warcraft Fables exists: 20%

🎯 Warcraft Fables = Classic+: 15%

🎯 This specific leak is accurate: 5%

The leaked schedule has already failed as a representation of Blizzard’s official programme. (Icy Veins⁠)


🟨 4. STARCRAFT — THE RETURN?

Now we’re entering potentially explosive territory.

A name has been circulating:

STARCRAFT INFANTRY

The alleged schedule claimed that Blizzard would reveal:

StarCraft Infantry — Deep Dive

followed by:

StarCraft Infantry — World & Lore

This has naturally led to speculation that Blizzard is preparing a new StarCraft shooter.

And here’s where things get interesting.

The existence of a StarCraft shooter has independent reporting behind it, dating back well before this particular leak.

But there is currently no confirmation that:

StarCraft Infantry = that project.

The specific name appears to originate with the alleged leak.

🎯 New StarCraft game at BlizzCon: 60%

🎯 StarCraft shooter: 55%

🎯 “StarCraft Infantry” is the real name: 15%

🎯 Playable demo: 35%

This could potentially be the biggest announcement of the entire show.


🟧 5. STARCRAFT — RTS COMEBACK?

Don’t forget what StarCraft actually is.

The franchise has been dormant as a major new-release franchise for years.

A return doesn’t necessarily have to be a shooter.

It could be:

🔹 StarCraft III


🔹 a new RTS


🔹 a spin-off


🔹 a shooter


🔹 an MMO-style project


🔹 mobile


🔹 or something completely unexpected.

The Blizzard Classic Cup is also bringing StarCraft: Remastered and StarCraft II into the spotlight at BlizzCon. (Blizzard News⁠)

Could Blizzard use that nostalgia as the setup for something much bigger?

🎯 Some form of new StarCraft project: 60%

🎯 New RTS specifically: 25%

🎯 StarCraft III: 15%

🎯 StarCraft surprise announcement: 65%


🟧 6. WARCRAFT CHRONICLES

Another name from the alleged schedule:

WARCRAFT CHRONICLES — MEET THE TEAMS

And again, the community has already decided what this supposedly means.

Some rumours have connected it to a new Warcraft strategy game.

But the leaked document doesn’t actually explain the project.

It could be:

⚔️ an RTS


📖 a narrative project


🎮 a new Warcraft game


📱 a mobile title


🧩 a development codename


or simply something that doesn’t exist.

🎯 Warcraft Chronicles is a real project: 20%

🎯 New Warcraft RTS: 25%

🎯 The leaked interpretation is correct: 10%


🟨 7. DIABLO IV — WHAT’S NEXT?

Diablo is officially part of the BlizzCon programme.

The official schedule includes a Diablo: Developer Update. (BlizzCon⁠)

That makes a Diablo announcement extremely likely.

The question is:

HOW BIG?

Possibilities include:

🔴 another major Diablo IV update


🟠 new endgame systems


🟡 future expansion information


🟢 a new class


🟣 something completely new

🎯 Major Diablo IV announcement: 65%

🎯 New expansion information: 40%

🎯 New Diablo project: 25%

🎯 Completely unexpected Diablo reveal: 20%


🟨 8. OVERWATCH — THE NEXT ERA

Overwatch has an official What’s Next presentation.

That means Blizzard is definitely preparing future-facing information for the franchise. (BlizzCon⁠)

The big question:

Could Blizzard reveal something beyond normal seasonal content?

Possible surprises:

🎮 major PvP overhaul


🧑‍🎤 new heroes


🗺️ new maps


🎬 animated project


📖 major lore expansion


🎮 console/Xbox-related announcement

🎯 Major Overwatch 2 announcement: 70%

🎯 Major gameplay/system reveal: 55%

🎯 Completely new Overwatch project: 10%


🟩 9. HEARTHSTONE

Hearthstone is returning to the BlizzCon stage with its World Championship.

The knockout stage will take place at BlizzCon on September 12–13. (Blizzard News⁠)

This makes Hearthstone one of the safest categories for actual content.

But don’t expect this to necessarily be the show’s biggest surprise.

🎯 Major Hearthstone announcement: 45%

🎯 New expansion reveal: 50%

🎯 Unexpected Hearthstone project: 10%


🟩 10. HEROES OF THE STORM

This is one of the biggest nostalgia questions.

Heroes of the Storm is being represented through the Blizzard Classic Cup, which also includes StarCraft and Warcraft III. (Blizzard News⁠)

Could Blizzard use BlizzCon to announce:

🔹 new content


🔹 a development revival


🔹 a new season


🔹 console support


🔹 or simply celebrate the game’s legacy?

🎯 Heroes of the Storm announcement: 30%

🎯 Major revival: 15%

🎯 New content: 25%

🎯 Just Classic Cup / nostalgia: 65%


🟣 11. THE WILD CARDS

Now for the fun part.

These are the announcements that could completely change the conversation.

🟣 NEW BLIZZARD IP

Blizzard could theoretically reveal something unrelated to its existing franchises.

🎯 Probability: 20%

🟣 STARCRAFT SHOOTER

If Blizzard has really been developing one, BlizzCon would be the perfect stage.

🎯 Probability: 55%

🟣 CLASSIC+ PLAYABLE DEMO

A playable Classic project would immediately become one of the biggest stories of the weekend.

🎯 Probability: 45%

🟣 WARCRAFT RTS

A completely new Warcraft strategy game would be enormous.

🎯 Probability: 25%

🟣 DIABLO NEW GAME

A completely new Diablo title rather than another IV expansion.

🎯 Probability: 20%

🟣 XBOX SURPRISE

With Blizzard now part of Microsoft, could Xbox have a major role in one of the announcements?

🎯 Probability: 30%


🚨 THE BIGGEST QUESTION

The anonymous leak that started all of this has been heavily scrutinised.

It claimed:

• StarCraft Infantry


• Northrend / The Last Titan


• Warcraft Fables


• Diablo IV


• Overwatch


• Warcraft Chronicles

But the official schedule now looks very different.

That means we should NOT call the leaked schedule real.

However…

That doesn’t automatically mean that every idea inside it is fake.

Some of these rumours existed independently of the leaked image.

And THAT is where things get interesting.


🏆 OUR CURRENT BLIZZCON 2026 PREDICTION BOARD

🥇 World of Warcraft major reveal — 80%


🥈 Classic-related announcement — 75%


🥉 Overwatch major announcement — 70%


4️⃣ Diablo IV major update/reveal — 65%


5️⃣ New StarCraft project — 60%


6️⃣ StarCraft shooter — 55%


7️⃣ Classic+ playable demo — 45%


8️⃣ New Diablo expansion information — 40%


9️⃣ New Warcraft RTS — 25%


🔟 Completely new Blizzard IP — 20%

But these numbers are predictions, not insider information.


👀 AND THERE’S STILL ONE HUGE POSSIBILITY…

The best BlizzCon surprises are usually the things nobody saw coming.

So our next question isn’t:

“What are the leaks?”

It’s:

🔥 WHAT COULD BLIZZARD SURPRISE EVERYONE WITH?

A completely new franchise?

StarCraft?

Classic+?

A Warcraft RTS?

A new Diablo game?

Something connected to Xbox?

Or something that isn’t even on our radar?

📅 September 12–13, 2026

🎮 BlizzCon is back.

And the real announcements are getting closer.

Ważna rzecz dla dalszej serii: nie traktowałbym już „StarCraft Infantry / Warcraft Fables / Warcraft Chronicles” jako jednego przecieku. Rozbijmy je na trzy niezależne sprawy i sprawdzajmy, czy każda ma osobne źródła. To pozwoli uniknąć sytuacji, w której fałszywy harmonogram zostanie błędnie uznany za dowód na istnienie wszystkich trzech projektów.

Następny materiał możemy zrobić jeszcze mocniej:  „BLIZZCON 2026 — TOP 10 SURPRISES BLIZZARD COULD DROP”, od najbardziej prawdopodobnych do absolutnych 1% WTF MOMENTS, z argumentami FOR / AGAINST przy każdej teorii.
