Blizzard has been keeping awfully quiet about the Titan project that has been speculated about for quite some time. Â Today, an industry analyst confirmed that the project could be on the books within a 12-24 month window. Â The analyst who was addressing investor concerns over Activision/Blizzard’s newer, trimmer portfolio of titles, listed the company’s upcoming projects where he placed the game in a time frame as well as classifying it as a “casual MMO”.
“In addition, expansion packs for Starcraft and World of Warcraft, a new Diablo game, a new casual MMO, new properties from Bungie, etc. will likely be released in the next 12 to 24 months and alleviate investor concerns in this regard” Â said the Sterne Agee analyst, Arvind Bhatia.
Though Blizzard has been known to develop to the beat of it’s own drum, and release games when they are 100% satisfied with the project. Â Diablo III which has been in development for quite some time, follows the same pattern that the Starcraft series followed in the lengthy development times. Â The time frame probably shouldn’t be considered as fact at this point, but the “casual mmo” reference is interesting.
