Blizzard's annual fan convention, BlizzCon 2018, is officially underway. Today brought with it the opening ceremony, which effectively serves as a press conference for the company where it tends to make many of its big announcements for the year. The ceremony is ongoing, and you can watch it below. It started out with former Blizzard president Mike Morhaime, a fixture of these events, speaking to the crowd before handing things off to his successor, J Allen Brack.
Below, we've also rounded up all of the major news Blizzard has shared so far; it'll be updated as more news hits. While it likely won't have anything huge to share over the course of the weekend, we'll report back with any other big news, along with interviews and more.
Destiny 2 Goes Free On PC (For Now)
Just prior to the opening ceremony getting underway, Activision announced that Destiny 2 on PC--which is available through Blizzard's Battle.net client--is now free to download. This isn't a permanent change, but if you claim it before it returns to its regular price, you can keep it permanently. You'll need to buy the Forsaken DLC to make the most of it, but it's still a nice freebie.
Lúcio-Ohs
During the pre-opening ceremony segment, Blizzard confirmed it is indeed set to release a breakfast cereal based on Overwatch in partnership with Kellogg's. It plays on a joke from the game itself and is called Lucio-Ohs. You can get a look at it in the video below.
