To celebrate Blizzard’s 30th anniversary, a gorgeous retrospective on artistry at Blizzard and the impact the studio has left emblazoned on gaming history.

For thirty years, Blizzard has been pushing boundaries and breaking expectations of what it means to draw for video games.

Get a glimpse behind the curtain at how art has evolved at Blizzard and meet some of the artists who’ve shaped Blizzard’s style and range to what it is today.

Discover how art cross-pollinated amongst game teams and how grassroots movements from fans inspired some of Blizzard’s most iconic artwork.

With insights from more than fifty artists, animators, designers, and storytellers, this sweeping compendium is fans’ ultimate keys to the kingdom of three decades in Blizzard artistry.
