Diablo 3 news » A Journey to the Heart of Blizzard HQ

Last year artisans from around the world rallied the tools of their trade to portray the heroes of Sanctuary or Malthael preparing for the coming conflict in the Diablo III: Reaper of Souls Fan Art Contest. When the dust settled, “New Evil” by Andrey Kuzinskiy (Kuzinskiy) was declared the grand prize winner, and in the months thereafter, Andrey received his prize package, as well as a once in a lifetime reward for his efforts: an action-packed trip all the way from Russia to Blizzard HQ to meet the artists and developers that inspired him.

In celebration of his journey, we’ve released a video which documents Andrey’s journey into the heart of Blizzard HQ, and we invite you to check it out below:

During his visit, Andrey had the opportunity to chat with Blizzard employees from across the company, and tour development areas for Diablo III, World of Warcraft, StarCraft, Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone, Licensing, Community, Cinematics, the Anvil, and more! In addition to the contest’s prize package, during the tour of Blizzard HQ Andrey received an original sketch from Sam Didier, a caricature from Anvil and the Storyboard team, a signature from Mike Morhaime, and a bonus goodie-bag from the awesome folks in Blizzard’s Licensing team, which was crammed full of Blizzard Gear and other collectables!

DeviantArt and Blizzard have just launched a comprehensive interview page with Andrey which includes a, photos of his action-packed visit, a walkthrough of his winning piece, and more! You can learn more about the winning artist behind the Diablo III: Reaper of Souls Fan Art Contest in our contest wrap-up here.
