A recent update to the "Employment Opportunities" page on the official website of renowned RPG developer Blizzard Entertainment holds information regarding the direction the acclaimed company may be heading in the future. According to the website, Blizzard is seeking people to fill multiple spots on the "Blizzard Console" development team. These positions include a Senior Producer, Next-Gen Senior Engine Programmer, and a Next-Gen Tools Programmer. Production experience with the Xbox 360, PS3, or Wii is considered a plus.

Blizzard Entertainment is primarily known for its critically acclaimed game World of Warcraft, along with the Diablo series, StarCraft and the original Warcraft, which are all for the PC. The recent news serves to confirm that Blizzard will contribute in some manner to the next generation of consoles, but details as to which specific systems are non-existent at this time. Whether the game will be a MMORPG in the same vein as World of Warcraft is also yet to be determined.
