La page des offres d'emploi de Blizzard est toujours suivie de prés. C'est ainsi que nous avions appris la possible conversion de Diablo III sur console ou il y a déjà quelques années, le développement du fameux Next-Gen MMO : Le projet Titan.

La section qui lui est dédiée est la plus importante, et outre les postes auxquels on peut s'attendre pour un jeu, ils recherchent aussi un "Franchise development Producer" dont le détail de l'offre d'emploi indique clairement que Blizzard compte miser pleinement sur les produits dérivés de sa nouvelle franchise, comme ils l'ont fait pour World of Warcraft entre autres.

Les supports listés comprennent :

- Livres et nouvelles

- Action figurine (jouets)

- Comics (BD)

- Court-métrages

- Vêtements

L'on en sait malheureusement toujours pas plus sur le fameux projet Titan, en dehors du fait que Blizzard le considère sérieusement comme le remplaçant de WoW à tous niveaux.
