| News Article |  |  Blizzard invitational starts tomorrow
27/06/2008 9:32am By Dalagonash
The highly anticipated Blizzard worldwide invitational starts tomorrow and will see Warcraft, Starcraft, and Diablo super fans converge in Paris to celebrate the company.
The invitational will host a number of events from playing upcoming games to contests, developer Q&A panels, tournaments, and more. The show will conclude with performances by game-music concert group Video Games Live and Blizzard’s own Warcraft-themed rock band, Level 70 Elite Tauren Chieftain.
“We’re looking forward to meeting face-to-face with thousands of our players at the Exposition Centre this weekend,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. “Our employees, partners, and sponsors have all contributed to making this a memorable experience for the attendees, and we hope everyone truly enjoys the show.”
Attendees will also be able to buy an additional layer of security for their WoW account in the form of a keychain that links an additional number to your account. The key-chain, which will cost €6.00 at the Invitational, creates a code that will be required alongside a normal password to sign in to the game.
“It’s important to us that World of Warcraft offers a safe and enjoyable game environment,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and - of Blizzard Entertainment. “One aspect of that is helping players avoid account compromise, so we’re pleased to make this additional layer of security available to them.”
