Blizzard's annual convention has undergone some changes. BlizzCon, the celebration of all things Blizzard, was bumped from its normal November slot due to the continuing COVID-19 pandemic. It wasn't cancelled, though, it was moved to a February date and to a fully online format. BlizzConline is now days away from airing and, on Wednesday, Blizzard posted the full schedule.

When is the BlizzConline Opening Ceremony?

The BlizzConline Opening Ceremony will begin on Friday, February 19 at 2 p.m. PT/5 p.m. ET. This is where Blizzard will discuss what's next for their various properties. That includes World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Hearthstone, and more.

Viewers can also expect to learn more about Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2, two of Blizzard's most anticipated new releases. However, don't expect a 2021 release date, if the recent Activision Blizzard earnings call is any indication. Expect to learn more about what's coming to those games, but don't expect to see either of them in 2021.

BlizzConline 2021: The full streaming schedule

Following the BlizzConline Opening Ceremony, viewers can split off into six different streaming channels. They will be dedicated to Blizzard (a mix of all of Blizzard's ongoing franchises), World of Warcraft, Hearthstone, Diablo, Overwatch, and Strategy (StarCraft, Warcraft III, Classic Blizzard).

Here is the full schedule, taken from the BlizzCon website (All times are PT):

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
