In recent times, I have rarely heard news about my uncle in the national server. Instead, there has been a lot of news related to the national server in foreign servers. Let’s take a look at the specific situation.
The first news came from the well-known US investment bank Morgan Stanley, which clearly stated in a document about NetEase’s prospects: “Blizzard may return to the Chinese market in the near future.” At the same time, it also supported NetEase’s prospects.
Players who follow the news about the national server should remember that this is not the first time that Morgan Stanley has mentioned the matter of Blizzard’s national server. On December 6, 2023, Morgan Stanley issued a special article stating that Blizzard and NetEase had reached a new agreement, and a network-wide press release on December 25 appeared shortly thereafter.
Although the turmoil surrounding the announcement of the entire Internet has made players lose all confidence, it is obviously impossible for such a well-known American investment bank to release such news out of thin air.
If the news from Morgan Stanley is true, it means that the national server agent must be NetEase, but during this period, there was also a reverse news.
The second news comes from multiple foreign game media. The specific content is that Blizzard is actively seeking to return to the Chinese market, but the return method is quite special, that is, through Korean servers. Return in disguise.
Obviously, both Morgan Stanley and the foreign game media believe that Blizzard is actively returning to China. However, Morgan Stanley prefers NetEase to continue acting as an agent, while the foreign game media believes that Blizzard will return to China. through domestic servers.
So will Blizzard really choose to replace the national server with the Korean server? Apparently not.
Pang Brother traced the source of the news from the foreign server game media, and the results obtained all came from the uncle in the Korean server. Although many players said that the Korean server uncle's revelations have always been very accurate, this revelation did not directly point to Blizzard games.
The original words of this Hanbok uncle were that a company planned to build a server specifically for Chinese players in Hanbok through leasing. However, the article did not mention which Blizzard game it was. The so-called Blizzard Family Bucket by foreign game media was basically made up by their own imagination. A more reliable guess is that new servers will be set up for Overwatch and Diablo 4, excluding World of Warcraft.
Pang Brother has talked to you before about the particularity of the national server. If Blizzard wants to return to the national server, it must establish a domestic server. All large companies in the world do this, including computers and mobile phones. company.
Under this premise, it is impossible for the Korean server to replace the national server. The most it can do is open a new server, similar to how Blizzard opened the Taiwan server and the global server in the Asian server. server, or similar to the first, fifth and tenth districts before the national server.
Taking a step back, even if Blizzard plans to use the Asian server to replace the Chinese server, is it necessary to use the Korean server? So many players in the Chinese server have gone to the Asian server, and then they will change to the Korean server? This is obviously impossible. If Blizzard was going to do this, it would have done it after the Chinese server was shut down and the Asian server was at its peak. Now the Asian server is going down, so there is absolutely no need.
If Blizzard really has no plan to return to the national server, and NetEase does not plan to take over, it will simply do various activities with NetEase Master. You can take a look at NetEase's latest 2023 financial report and latest stock price. NetEase really doesn't need to do these things for the sake of stock price.
Of course, the above content is information obtained from a third party. You must judge whether it is true or false. Until there is official news, players still need to wait patiently.
The above is the detailed content of Morgan Stanley hints that Blizzard games will return to China, and a lot of news broke about foreign servers. Will Korean servers replace the national servers?. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
