For the past 5 years blizzard have been gently teasing the gaming world, but since last year we have a bit more definitive proof.
I shall explain.
PROJECT TITAN.
In 2007 we saw the arise of internet speculation on a Blizzard Internet Forum started that a game was in development after the company has advertised for 'character and environment artists' to work on a 'Next-Gen MMORPG' that was 'Top secret'. This was later confirmed that the advert was not posted for World of Warcraft expansion pack. Which as you can imagine added wind to the flames. but it had promised to be something fresh and new for Blizzard devotee's to dig into.
2010 Gave us more information on what had seemed a forgotten rumor at the time, when in that November blizzard gave us the low down that the project, now named 'Titan', was going to be a release ready for the fourth quarter of 2013. Frank Pearce (co-founder)said Titan was 'our next-gen MMO, and we've only started talking about it in a limited fashion because we want to leverage the fact that we're working on something like that for the purpose of recruiting--getting some of the best talent in the industry on that'
The excitement increases.
Then 2011, Blizzard reveals that they were using lessons learned from years of World of Warcraft, and pulling some of the most experienced MMORPG developers working on the project. Significance was put on Titan being a game which was to be played with people they know as appose to strangers. towards the end of the year it was said there was 90 developers working on the project, it nearly being ready to enter full production mode.
There's one detail that has not been confirmed by Blizzard but strongly rumored. Titan is supposed to be a free game with no subscription required, something new and fresh from Blizzard.
