Blizzard Working on New First Person Game

-----------
.....

New job postings indicate Blizzard is working on a new first person game but it's still unclear as to whether the game will be related to Overwatch or something completely new.

New job listings show that Blizzard is looking to hire two lead software engineers for an unannounced project or game. What's interesting is that this unannounced game will be first person:

"Blizzard Entertainment is seeking an experienced engine engineer to work on a robust first-person engine for an unannounced project."

Could this be something completely new, or is it possible that this is a new project in the Overwatch franchise? Taken into consideration that before Overwatch, Blizzard was working on a MMO codenamed Titan that failed after seven years of development and the game that rose from the ashes of the scrapped Titan project was Overwatch.

It could be that this project is going to be a major expansion for Overwatch, potentially as Blizzard looks to move beyond the Origins Edition to an important expansion or sequel. It's complete speculation at this point, but lots of fans may be hoping that this unannounced project could be a campaign or story-based Overwatch game.

The Overwatch universe is filled with character and lore with a rich, talented story team at Blizzard working on the IP. Fans have been looking for some kind of playable story mode of Overwatch for a long time, but so far the non PvP elements have been online only. It appears the Halloween-themed Junkenstein's Revenge co-op mode only strengthen that desire as well.

Fans should take all of this with a large grain of salt, as it's very little to go on at this point. And with Blizzcon having recently ended, a big announcement such as a new game is probably a long way off.

Overwatch is currently available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
