World of Warcraft mobile game reportedly canceled – Blizzard has a CHINA Problem?

The World of Warcraft mobile MMO that’s not a thing anymore. Over on Bloomberg, they report that after three years of development Activision Blizzard and Netease have shut down production of the warcraft mobile game, the team of 100 developers assembled by Netease has been disbanded all because the two companies disagreed over terms and money and ultimately called a halt to the project.

As we know Netease is blizzard’s gateway into China and there have been some problems of late that we have addressed before back in June diablo immortal got held up in China because Netease said there were some adjustments that needed to be made.

It was at that exact same time that blizzard’s diablo immortal account was being banned from one of china’s biggest social media platforms.

What’s even crazier is we think we probably all forgot this isn’t even the first blizzard mobile game canceled, recently either as the Pokemon go style game that was being worked on for four plus years was canceled as well.

The tension between Netease and Blizzard is something that keeps coming up over and over again it just seems like the two companies don’t really know how to work well together.
