Starcraft 2 news » gamescom 2012 Starts This Week

The world’s biggest games convention begins this Wednesday, August 15, in Cologne! Be sure to stop by the Blizzard Entertainment booth in Halle 6.1 (B21) at the Koelnmesse for some unforgettable activities and a sneak peek at our newest games.



Catch the world premiere of the World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria opening cinematic at 14:00 on August 16, the first fully public day of the event. Check out the Mists of Pandaria beta and the latest StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm multiplayer, and relive the excitement of Diablo III. Watch as pro gamers battle it out in exciting StarCraft II show matches, and see how top guilds annihilate bosses in live World of Warcraft raids. Hear the enchanting music from our games performed by an orchestra, view live drawing sessions by a Blizzard artist, or participate in our quizzes.



You could also get your hands on some fabulous prizes from our partners with our contests! It’s not too late to sign up for the Blizzard Costume Contest, World of Warcraft Dance Contest, or Mists of Pandaria Leveling Contest!



Experience all this and much more at the Blizzard booth. Visit our Activities page for full details, and stop by the official gamescom site for info on the event.
