Blizzard announces
details on the virtual tickets that will allow anyone who wishes to attend
November's BlizzCon 2014 to do so from the comfort of their own home. These are
on sale
on Battle.net for $39.99, but those only interested in watching streams of
the eSports competitions can do so for free. The Virtual Ticket will offer
access to two streams, including all panel discussions, as well as early access
to an online sale of items from the event. As usual, an assortment of in-game
items will also be included. Here's the deal in a nutshell:
The Virtual
Ticket gives you a front-row seat at BlizzCon 2014—taking place November 7 and 8
in Anaheim, CA—from the comfort of your own couch, live and in high definition
(720p). You’ll get comprehensive coverage of both days of the show, including
panels, contests, closing ceremony, interviews, and more, as well as some cool
commemorative in-game goodies.
