Blizzard to release two games next year

Activision has revealed that, while it is busy ending internal projects left, right and centre, it is planning for Blizzard to release two new games in 2012.

On the down side, however, Activision says it expects two games in 2012 mainly because Blizzard hasn't set any release dates for 2011.

'Because Blizzard Entertainment has not yet confirmed the launch date for its next global release, our outlook at this time does not include a new game from Blizzard in 2011,' said Activision COO Thomas Tippl, according to Joystiq.

'Should we not see a major title from Blizzard this year, we would expect for planning purposes to launch a minimum of two Blizzard titles in 2012.'

Activision's projections don't reveal what the two games are, but it's expected to refer to Diablo 3 and StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm - neither of which have a release date yet.
