Blizzard has worked out an agreement with Nexon to publish a mobile version of the hero shooter Overwatch, according to a new report from MTN. The two companies will also reportedly work on a new StarCraft game.
"Blizzard has been bidding since the fourth quarter of the last year for major Korean game companies, offering content development rights using the Starcraft IP and the Korean and Japanese service rights for Overwatch Mobile as a package deal," reads the report (via VideoGamesChronicle).
Overwatch Mobile is being referred to as Overwatch 3 internally, while it isn't clear what genre the new StarCraft game will be.
This should be treated as a rumor until an official announcement is made.
