World of Warcraft’s senior producer John Lagrave sat down with Eurogamer to discuss the future of the ever-changing gaming industry. “Maybe we’ll stumble on the great way to put WOW on the phone – maybe we won’t, but we’re certainly looking into it”.
Lagrave said.
“"We won’t do it until we think it’s decent. But it’s interesting and the world is evolving towards that little handheld device – I’d have fun on it, that’s absolutely the case. It would be foolish for any game developer to not be looking at that and we’re not – we don’t think- we’re foolish!”
Having a large game such as WoW ported to a touch-based mobile device wouldn’t come without its fair share of problems. As Gameloft’s Order & Chaos has shown, however, MMORPGs are definitely doable on portable devices. Blizzard does currently have a WoW app available for mobile devices and the web to assist WoW players that allows you to check auctions, look up PvP gear, create talent specs, and access the armory. Aptly dubbed the World of Warcraft Mobile Armory, the app will allow you to access all of these things on the fly in the rare occasion that you’re not in front of a PC or Mac.
