Mike Morhaime Interviews - Project Titan and Starcraft Ghost
Mike Morhaime, co-founder and former President of Blizzard Entertainment, has been discussing his time at Blizzard in a series of recent interviews. Most recently, he talked with VG247 about the canceled MMO project, code-named Titan.

  • Titan was canceled because Blizzard failed to control the scope of the project.
  • They looked at Titan as a sequel to World of Warcraft, a next-generation MMO.
  • Many of their senior developers were put on project Titan.
  • The game was very ambitious taking place in a universe focused on hystorical myth, with time travel mechanics.
  • Titan would have been a subscription-based MMO had it been released.
  • The engine for the game never reached the level of where it needed to be, and the developer staff said it wasn't working.
  • They asked the team to come up with one or two ideas they could focus on, it could be anything they wanted.
  • Overwatch was the result of the Titan team's brainstorming and became the focus of their team.

Mike Morhaime also discussed the cancellation of Starcraft Ghost, what would have been a 3rd person action game set in the Starcraft universe.

  • Blizzard felt Starcraft Ghost couldn't be successful because of limited resources.
  • During Starcraft Ghost development, World of Warcraft was exploding while Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2 were in development.
  • The team had to make tough choices on where to place its talent, and there weren't enough resources to go around.
  • With Starcraft Ghost canceled, they could focus on injecting all their talent into other products.
