Blizzard is working on a Warcraft mobile game

…INSPIRED BY POKEMON GO.

Blizzard is reportedly working on a Warcraft mobile game based on

Pokemon Go, the mobile critter collector. According to a Kotaku report, this game’s development was spurred by three main factors. Firstly, and most obviously, Blizzard loves Warcraft. Secondly, lots of Blizzard staff love Pokemon Go, with many employees apparently routinely warring over the Pokestop statue in the middle of the studio’s Irvine, California, campus. And thirdly, according to one anonymous employee, many Blizzard employees enjoy playing mobile games and want to try making them.
