It makes lots of sense and I don't think it's a fake, but it should probably be taken with a mountain of salt. Its 8 months old and it's probably, as Boubouille said, " Target release date in a year makes sense. The 2 expansions aren't really a surprise but I wouldn't take it as a confirmation, that's usually the kind of stuff you mention in company meetings with the higher-ups to make everyone happy. "

And all the information here is pretty damn obvious, they are doing to milk the WoW-cow for aslong as they possibly can and then make the transition over to Titan, MMOFPS ftw. We've all known that Sc2 is a triology, we just havn't known any dates. This gives us dates. But the dates WILL change. So this picture is really nothing but confirmation of what is going to happen, not nessessarily when.

Still no clue what Phoenix is though. Could be the L2D, Aiur Chef, DotA maps or something. Can't explain why they'd call in Phoenix and not " Map Pack " though.

And remember a quarter is 3 months. Which is plenty of space for releasing things. I would take all the dates with a huge grain of salt though.

Quite a bit of it makes sense, however.

I for one won't be paying money for maps, are they serious?

And if someone could come up with a good fake picture... why would they make the mistake of putting release dates too close together.

I'm 50/50 on whether this is real or fake.

Diablo 3 Q4 2011 and SC2X1 Q42011 looks very fake. But still hopeful here

Any douchebag can make a picture... I don't see why people would consider this even remotely close to the truth :<

While it may be fake, it seems odd that someone can come up with sc2 phoenix and shit haha. But then again people are really good at faking things (like my exwife... ZING!!!)

It's a fake.

First of all, Blizzard has a confirmed schedule of 2 games per year, and StarCraft 2 expansions have a confirmed 18 month gap between them.

This new "list" contradicts those 2 official statements (source is past year's accionist's conference).

Also, the list appeared originally at http://www.mmogamesite.com/news/blizzard-product-slate-leaked.html so you should give credit to them.

Finally, someone commented on how "suspicious" was that the chart used that same "rare" green color that is used, too, at MMO-Champion forums.

It's a fake.

Edit: Also, whoever wrote this is a douchebag. No company gets 2 titles out in the same quarter, and less one with these low levels of titles. It's not only because of the sales, it's because the beta testings and the maintenance, that is carried over by the same group for all the games.

Ya it's gonna be Free To Play but you can purchase Micro Transaction items I heard.

Mmm yes, I suppose they will make WoW as a pay for services right? Like gold or special items

Its just a company vision/plan. A manager always have to look forward at least 5 years, it will never be correct the longer time goes. Kind of surprised no one speculate the image's date yet as this kind of thing are what activision want blizzard to show to them.

@Bibendus

They are making WoW Free to Play after they release Titan, so that expansion pack will probably be the last one and make WoW F2P.

Calling bs on this. Doubt you'll see map market before expansion.

Both afro and yuka could be right on Phoenix... stupid speculations I want to know the truth NOW!

Yes Titan could be the new secret blizzard MMO but I don't understand the choice on releasing it at the same time of a wow expansion... It's a nonsense!

Phoenix has rebirth ability. SC Phoenix might be mod pack for SC1 with SC2 engine

haha Blizzard and release dates doesnt have anything in common lol
