Looking at the game market in the past few years, it is not difficult to find that the MMO mobile games that occupied the mainstream position in the past have gradually been replaced by competitive categories, and "Glory of kings" and "League of Legends mobile games" are leading the way.
But in May this year, MMORPG mobile games or will usher in a breakthrough -
Blizzard announced that the "Warcraft" mobile game announced details in May, and "Against the Water Cold Mobile Game" is also speculated to be launched at the NetEase 520 conference, the MMO market seems to have begun to surge again, let's take a look at it!
What does the Warcraft universe mobile game look like? I believe that everyone wants to know this question, but at present there is only some speculation, and there is no specific revelation.
In Blizzard's update announcement, 2022 plans to provide a large number of new content for the Warcraft series, in addition to the new experience of World of Warcraft and Hearthstone, the first Warcraft worldview game for mobile, which will be released in May.
Bobby Kotick, president of Activision Blizzard, said: "We should let players experience Warcraft content in more different ways, so a number of free mobile (tablet) products are in development."
The Warcraft IP is ported to the mobile phone, it may be the "World of Warcraft Mobile Game", it may be the "Warcraft Mobile Game", and even more, it is just a mobile game that uses the Warcraft IP.
Large-scale MMORPG games like "Warcraft", to achieve mobile phones, in fact, is very difficult. For example, 10 skill icons have been directly lined up in the interface, and a few G memory must abandon many functions, only retaining some skills, battles, maps, mechanisms, and so on.
Everyone speculates that the RTS type is the least likely, it is more likely to be a strategy mobile game, such as COK, and even the well-known gamer Lin Panda also hinted that it is likely to be a "tower defense"!
As the originator of MMO online games, the feelings of old players can be imagined, just as the queue of "Warcraft Nostalgia Suit" was grand at that time, presumably if there is a mobile game, there will definitely be a lot of WOWer return. More players mentioned that in fact, it is long overdue to swim, and the original nostalgic clothes should be transplanted to the mobile game and eat a wave of dividends.
On the other hand, in addition to Blizzard's "Warcraft Mobile Game", NetEase is also preparing for the momentum, and the peak period of "Against the Water Cold" is popular all over the Network, it can be said that "debut is the peak", and the popularity of the end game remains high.
And "Against the Cold Water Mobile Game" NetEase has invested quite amazing production resources, not only has the same top picture quality and details as the end game, the degree of freedom is higher, and there will be more innovative gameplay.
Recently, "Against the Cold Water Mobile Game" has not released too much news, but from the perspective of test progress, in October 2021, the production team has completed the first test concept test, including Android, IOS dual platform, it can be seen that the development progress is not completely stagnant.
Coupled with the annual NetEase 520 conference, there will be a heavy new game burst, so there is a lot of speculation on the Internet, that Activision Blizzard has always been at the end of the year carnival, this year choose to advance the preview of May there will be a big move, is not to jointly release this new product at the NetEase conference?
For the MMO mobile game field, NetEase's ace product "Against the Water Cold Mobile Game" has long been ready to go, if Blizzard 'Warcraft Mobile Game' is going to be launched at this opportunity, it must be the two of them forming the "MMO King Explosion Combination" debuting together and releasing to the outside world.
NetEase's layout on MMO mobile games can not only be, in addition to the "World of Warcraft" mobile game, "Diablo: Immortal", jointly produced by NetEase and Blizzard, is likely to be released in the first half of 2022.
Although the author also feels that the more I guess, the more outrageous it is, amazon-released "The Lost Ark" has exceeded 20 million players in STEAM worldwide, and it is inevitable that MMORPG seems to be back to the peak.
If NetEase takes advantage of this shareholder wind to concentrate "Warcraft Mobile Game" + "Reverse Water Cold Mobile Game" + "Diablo: Immortal" in May, it is not impossible to look at the online bombing conference, it is not impossible, I don't know if NetEase is holding back this big move!
