    This new partnership should excite fans in the region

    Unfortunately Blizzard lost so much community trust with their fallouts in Overwatch 2, Diablo Immortals, Diablo 4, and in regards to sexual allegations to their own staff.

    I think chinese customers will be unaware of those fallouts, but considering Blizzard fucked up their contract negotiations, those players will be very considerate when deciding to buy the next Blizzard games.

      The vast majority of American and western consumers don’t even care about the issues with Blizzard. I highly doubt Chinese ones would.
