Co-hosts Mike Minotti and Jeffrey Grubb reunite now that our reviews editor has returned from BlizzCon. We spend a portion of this week’s GamesBeat Decides podcast going over Mike’s time spent with Blizzard games and becoming best friends with important people at that company (like Jeff Kaplan).

Major BlizzCon topics include Overwatch’s new healer Moira and the new single-player mode coming to Hearthstone. Mike also spends some time digging into expectations for World of Warcraft and the viability of that long-running online game going forward.

In addition to Minotti’s Anaheim adventures, we check into some of the news. Again, this section is very Blizzard-heavy as the developer announced some upcoming changes, features, and content for World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Hearthstone, and more.

Games we talk about this episode:

  • Super Mario Odyssey
  • Doom on Switch
  • Need For Speed: Payback
  • Call of Duty: WWII
  • BlizzCon games
