The schedule for BlizzCon 2023 shows that fans should mostly be expecting news and reveals related to Blizzard Entertainment titles that have already been released. World of Warcraft, Overwatch 2, World of Warcraft Classic, Hearthstone, and Diablo IV all have dedicated live-stream sections, so expect notable news for all of these games. When it comes to Overwatch 2, Blizzard confirmed that a new hero for the game will be revealed.

Outside of that, the Warcraft mobile game Warcraft Rumble launches on the first day of BlizzCon, November 3. It has a big presence on BlizzCon 2023’s show floor and will have a dedicated section of the live stream as well. Le Sserafim will also appear at BlizzCon 2023, concluding the show by performing live and debuting a new single called Perfect Night. So, while it doesn’t seem like any new game reveals are in store, those who engage with all of Blizzard’s live service titles will certainly want to tune in to learn what’s next for the games they play.

Loved Expedition 33’s combat? You should try this indie rock RPG
An evil corporate throne room in Fretless.

It's been over a month since I finished everything there was to do in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and yet I still found myself craving more.

The satisfaction of mastering parry timing and crafting the perfect build with the Pictos and Luminas was more than enough motivation to finish the story and take down every optional challenge the world had to throw at me.

While I could go back and mess with the difficulty modifiers for a new challenge, I instead found a hidden gem of an RPG that scratches that same itch for tactical but reactive combat, but with a few unique twists that have more than filled that void.

What if you are the type of person who wants to get every collectible there is? In either case, you might be surprised at how Donkey Kong Bananza actually is. After playing the game from start to finish, here's how long you can expect to spend playing Donkey Kong Bananza.
