Blizzard has been riding the success of World of Warcraft for over a year now and it finally looks as if the development powerhouse is preparing a new title or at least picking up were the now dead Blizzard North left off. The firm recently posted a handful of new job opportunities including 'Art Director,' 'Lead 3D Environment Artist,' 'Lead 3D Character Artist,' and 'Lead 3D Character Animator' complete with teasing descriptions.
The descriptions of the positions, include, "The team behind Diablo I and II is looking for an exceptionally skilled [insert job title here]" have lead many to believe that the unannounced project is the inevitable Diablo III which Blizzard themselves said they hope to make.
We officially know that Blizzard is only working on the World of Warcraft expansion, The Burning Crusade, in-house, with the development of Starcraft: Ghost being taken care of by Swingin' Ape Studios. With Starcraft: Ghost set for release in the coming months, an official announcement could be made shortly on the upcoming project.
