World of Warcraft isn't going anywhere. Blizzard may be working on another massively multiplayer online game, but it's not intended to replace its bread-and-butter. The studio has confirmed it's working on another online endeavor while keeping specifics about it under wraps. Activision CEO Bobby Kotick shined a little more light on it during a Deutsche Bank Securities Technology Conference talk that GameSpot was listening on.
Kotick described Blizzard's other MMO as a game that will have "a little more broad appeal," suggesting it won't be set in the orcs 'n elves fantasy world that dominates MMO games.
At PAX, former-1UP-editor-turned-Ignition Entertainment business developer Shane Bettenhausen teased that Blizzard's MMO was set in the present. Maybe he's right.

Aion is pretty sick. They better do something fast. I played in the Aion Beta and alot of WoW players were in their.

I've been waiting for a MMO where its not all the same like basic attacks and weapons basic everything. One in present day would be cool but depends on what you're doing.

A new IP from these guys would be nice.

I've never played an mmo other than ffxi and i barely played that, but I would like to try something that doesn't involve the typical fantasy world stuff.

Hmm, lol I'd say maybe its World of Starcraft, but I don't know if that would be a broader appeal or not.

I'm shocked it is going to be a brand new ip but we'll see how "new" this new mmo is really going to be.

How do you get "more broad appeal" than over 11 million people? Will Bobby Kocklick (spelled that way on purpose) not be happy until they completely rule the world and enslave humanity to their software?

Hopefully it's built for PvP from start to finish. PvP in WoW is a joke.

Finally, Blizzard may be their own WoW killer! Got to love it.
