It looks like Blizzard Entertainment may be Super Virgin (2012)bringing some of its biggest video game series to television based on the LinkedIn bio of an executive at the video game behemoth, Gamespot reported Sunday.
Nick van Dyk, president at Activion Blizzard, has included some very interesting information on his LinkedIn page under the description for what he does in his role, saying that he is the executive producer on an animated Diabloshow for Netflix, helped to develop and sell an animated Overwachseries, and has overseen some pre-production work on a Call of Dutycinematic and television universe.
Unless van Dyk is lying on his online resume, this is a very exciting development. As long as these shows turn out better than the Warcraftmovie.
In case van Dyk edits his LinkedIn page, here's exactly what the most pertinent bullet points said:
- Executive producer of Diablo, a TV adaptation of Blizzard Entertainment’s IP, rendered in anime style. The show is currently in pre-production for distribution worldwide through Netflix.
- With my creative partner, authored development strategy for the Call of Duty cinematic and television universe. Secured development funding, developed writer compensation deals and oversaw negotiations to secure talent.
- With my creative partner, developed and sold an animated series based Blizzard's Overwatch franchise.
The cinematics that Blizzard creates for its games are well-renowned for their quality, so the idea of the company expanding some of its IP into television doesn't seem very far off.
SEE ALSO: 'Diablo 4' revealed with a hellish trailerWhile details are pretty sparse on these series, the information van Dyk shared about the Diabloseries seem pretty concrete, given the fact that they already know what style of animation the show will use and which streaming service it will be available on. It sounds pretty similar to the Castlevaniaseries on Netflix, which bears has a comparable gothic aesthetic.
Blizzard has previously announced that its working on multiple unannounced Diabloprojects, and this TV series could easily be one of them.
When asked to confirm or comment on the news, a Blizzard spokesperson said, "We have nothing to announce at this time."
