I'll also put Art of Conquest in image form, since this will probably help people visualize something that isn't Clash of Clans:
- Blizzard put up a new job posting for a Unity based iOS/Android MMO RTS.
- It's not 100% clear if this is the same game as the Warcraft mobile game they've been making. These new jobs are quite senior, and Blizzard was previously hiring a bunch of non-senior staff to make a mobile title that's seemingly been in development for 18 months or so. Obviously it's a dead-ringer for brand + genre though.
- If you're currently sitting there and going "What on earth is a mobile MMO RTS???", then check out this short trailer for Art of Conquest, which is the most likely fit among games that have been called a mobile MMO RTS: https://youtu.be/3gRekVIKgXQ
