Blizzard:

World of Warcraft, StarCraft and Diablo house Blizzard has confirmed that it is working on a “next-gen” MMO.
Blizzard has only served to heighten speculation concerning its future plans by making a statement announcing that it is working on a new MMO which has nothing to do with a World of Warcraft expansion.

Gossip began to fly after the developer posted a number of jobs on the US recruitment page of its website advertising for staff for a “next-gen MMO”.

In response to frenzied speculation on the World of Warcraft forums, a Blizzard rep made the following post. "It is an unannounced Next-Gen MMO. And that doesn't mean an expansion for World of Warcraft either."

While further details surrounding the project are still being kept tightly under wraps, the term next-gen isn’t one generally associated with PC gaming, only heightening speculation that the game in question could be headed to Xbox 360 and / or PS3, despite the fact that the company said recently that it would remain focused primarily on PC games following the merger of its parent company Vivendi Games and Activision.

The Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences announced Wednesday that Blizzard president, CEO and co-founder Mike Morhaime had become the organization's 11th Hall of Fame inductee.
