Blizzard at Comic-Con
Whether you’re stopping by our booth, or just jealously reading about all the announcements, toys, and comics from afar (like most of us are), we have all the latest Blizzard-related info direct from San Diego Comic-Con
Warcraft Movie
The Legendary panel at Comic-Con is Saturday at 2:30 p.m. in Hall H, and the Warcraft movie will be part of the lineup. While we can’t really talk about the panel, if you’re at Comic-Con, trust us—you’ll want to be there. Additional information on lining up for Hall H can be found in this lovely guide that our friends at Geek & Sundry have put together.
You’ll also want to stop by the Legendary and Weta booths for a glimpse at the larger-than-life King Llane and Orgrim statues, movie props, and for signings with the cast and crew of the film. Find out more at the Legendary site.
Warcraft: Skies of Azeroth
Legendary has released a new VR mobile app: Warcraft: The Skies of Azeroth, an immersive experience created in partnership with Industrial Light & Magic. They’ve also partnered with Google to distribute Google Cardboard headsets for Comic-Con attendees to use with the app.
Warcraft Graphic Novel
Setting the stage for the Warcraft movie, Legendary Comics revealed the official graphic novel prequel Warcraft: Bonds of Brotherhood.
This thrilling adventure of bravery, bloodshed and brotherhood is an original story conceived by Chris Metzen, written by the award-winning Paul Cornell (Doctor Who) and featuring art from Mat Broome (Batman: No Man's Land, WildC.A.T.S, Witchblade).
Warcraft: Bonds of Brotherhood will be released in May 2016 in the weeks before the movie hits theaters on June 10th.
Gear Store-Con Sale
Even if you’re not in San Diego, you can still reap the rewards! During the convention the Blizzard Gear Store is offering free shipping on orders over $70 USD. And if you were lucky enough to get one of the Epic Purple lanyards last year, disenchant that thing immediately . . . you just got an upgrade! Along with free shipping we’ll send you a Legendary lanyard gift with your purchase.
Head over to the Gear Store to save, and become LEGENDARY.
Visiting Us at Comic-Con? We’ve Got the Gear!
If you’re coming to see us at Comic-Con we’re selling a few exclusives that will be limited per-day, and tickets will be distributed on a first-come first-served basis. If you receive a ticket for the item you want you can come back any time to pick your item up. Come back when there’s no line, and we’ll have your items waiting for you. If you’re hoping to get one of these we recommend arriving early—they go fast.
Our convention exclusives will also be showing up at some future conventions like BlizzCon, but if you’re at Comic-Con, these are something you’ll want to look out for, as their availability is limited.

We just wrapped up our Blizzard Entertainment Showcase panel, during which we revealed this little video of some of our newly released products, as well as a few things we’re still working on.
Warcraft Chronicle: Volume 1
Also revealed was an upcoming book exporing the lore, stories, and settings of Azeroth: Warcraft Chronicle. This first volume will go all the way back to the creation of the Warcraft universe through Warcraft: Orcs and Humans. Featuring never-before-seen artwork by Peter Lee, this holistic look back at the history of Warcraft will bring Azeroth's stories to new visual life.
