BlizzCon 2015 Map and Schedule
The 2015 Blizzcon Map and Schedule have been released! There were a few tweaks to the previous one, but it still doesn't appear to have the previously mentioned Engineering panel.

It's All About Pepe: New In-Game Outfits and Plush
You can finally find Pepe!

There’s something about Pepe that has everyone all aflutter, and today we have a bunch more reasons for you to love him.

First, we’ve added a Pepe plush to the Blizzard Gear Store*! He’s soft, squishy, loveable, and can clip onto a hat or hairband (or pretty much anywhere else) to go with you anywhere Pepe wants to go.

Get your own Pepe now!

But wait—there's more!

Pepe's Brand New Clothes
Several new in-game outfits for Pepe are also now available for you to track down. Collecting them all will reward the I Found Pepe! achievement. We’ve written some clues—and more than a couple of bad rhymes—to get you started on the right path to locating each one. (We’re not even a little sorry for it. Screenshots below not indicative of his in-game location. Good luck!)

Knight Pepe – Talador
Sir Pepe is a knight, you see, but every warrior needs a rest. You’ll find him half-asleep right now near a pile of amythest.

Ninja Pepe – Gorgrond
What killed these iron hordies, you thought you knew—but alas, you were wrong. Turns out it was the stealthy Ninja Pepe all along.

Pirate Pepe – Spires of Arak
Pirate Pepe flew down south to visit his feathered friends. You’ll find him there relaxing in some arrakoa ru-ins.

Viking Pepe – Nagrand
This Pepe will be easy for anyone to spot. Viking Pepe always thought his dancing moves were hot.

Join the celebration of our Pepe overlord! Share your Pepe love and screenshots with the @Warcraft Twitter using the hashtag #IFoundPepe all day today.

*Please note that in some locations customs fees may apply in addition to the normal shipping fees.

I want a plush pepe!!!

$20????? Are they on DRUGS?

[Triggered Fridgekin]

Two panels for Hearthstone, three for Heroes of the Storm, two for Overwatch, but only one for Diablo.

Alright, guess no new expansion announcement since it'll probably take them an hour to jerk each other off about 2.3.

[KevyB]

/facepalm

This is so pathetic it's not even funny.


OH YEAHHH LETS CREATE A TURD PLUSH WITH PINK EYES AND PUSH IT LIKE ITS SOME HIP THING.

Fucking hell, blizzard falls lower by the day.

[roahn the warlock]

Does... Blizzcon not have a musical guest this year? What the hell is the 200 price tag for?

They know there are major suckers that'll buy it, so they wildly overcharge. Business.

Eh, could be way more expensive. Pokemon Plushies are $45.

[kneeo]

People pay $25 for in game items. $20 for a physical collectible item really isn't bad at all.

You cant be serious. 20 dollars is nothing, for good quality plushes like Blizzard has. The Froswolf pup is what 25? Ya Im sure you can go buy shit quality bird plush from ebay but ya....

You cant be serious. 20 dollars is nothing, for god quality plushrs like Blizzard has. The Froswolf pup is what 25? Ya Im sure you can go buy shut quality burd plush from ebay but ya....

$10 WITH shipping is the max I would be willing to pay.

[Segus1992]

Same deal but a much bigger market. Wildly overpriced items that complete suckers will buy. With Pokémon they can charge more for the same reason.

[HowToLitho101]

$10 WITH shipping is the max I would be willing to pay.

Others would pay a lot more. It depends what its worth for you. I personally wont buy it. But again 20 bucks is nothing crazy

[valcrist]

pretty balanced schedule but only 1 Diablo panel wtf??? they have over 50 million sales of that damn game and its bigger then ever i totally was expecting an Expansion announcement, its been awhile sense ROS was launched. So here is hoping an expansion announcement is the 2nd thing for Diablo

[alzoron]

I like how in all the pirctures of pepe he's perfectly perched on top of the character's head but in game he's partly embedded in my face. Female troll models still have a lot of issues about where things are attached to their bodies.

[Shudder]

They're trying way too hard to make this pepe shit a thing. It's sad.

[Deleted]

I still have no idea what this Pepe thing is. I thought the meme was a frog?

Also, this cost us a raid tier etc, etc.

It started out as a little easter egg one of their 3D artists put into the game.

If you find and click on the bird, he perches on your head and sits there for an hour (or until your die), looking around and occasionally tweeting. Players discovered him, thought he was cute, and he became popular, so Blizzard put some achievements into the game for defeating a ton of different raid bosses with the Pepe buff on, and so on.

[Easo]

Where the hell is the movie panel...

[plaits]

$10 WITH shipping is the max I would be willing to pay.

I mean, okay. Everyone has their own price for these things. But if you compare the price of plushies from other companies, $20 isn't a strange price at all.

My kid collects plushies, so she's getting one. It's not a cheap plushie, but it's also not the most expensive one she's gotten either.

Like others have said, $20 for a thing you can actually hold vs $25 for a pixel mount. Don't really see it's unreasonable. Fair enough if you don't want to drop $20 on a stuffed toy, no problem. But it's a fair market price.

[GrinningMan]

That feeling when Pepe the Bird will have more customization options and content than the players could ever dream of having.
